  "textContent": "Currently the only way to construct such range is via `start..(start + length)`\n\nInstead, we would be able to do it via `Range::from_len(start, length)`\n\nOr, via a new custom syntax `start..+length`\n\n  * This would help avoid off-by-one errors / wrongly defined ranges (ex: `start..length`)\n  * Doesn't have a possibility to express an invalid (`start > end`) range\n  * Reduce boilerplate (repeating `start`)\n  * Is generally the more natural way to express a range\n\n\n\n(Instead of len/length it can be count/width/offset)",
