Or has some sort of request already been placed and turned down?

series_index (the value seen inside the [#])
is a
number type value
minus may only precede a number [-42]
(you can't have a range in a numeric field)
Changing this field would have a
massive ripple effect on the code and user installed base.
You could have a custom column #series_index_ending (implied - between), but that fails if the omnibus skips 1,3,4
There is no single solution (dratted publishers and authors for making this difficult. Novels ONLY guys)
