Whilst alpha-testing I decided to try out custom column #pages (integer) as a Groupable item.

With 'Group by first letters' checked the results are:
<<>> [1 #pages, 3 books]
0 [113 #pages, 134 books]

With 'Group by first letters' unchecked the results are:
<<>> [1 #pages, 3 books]
... ...
99 [1 book]
...
nnn [1 book] x a very long list

Unfortunately, neither of which is ideal. What I'd really like for Grouped integer custom columns is something like:
0-99 [n books]
100-149 [n books]
150-199 [n books] etc. etc.

Might such an option be doable in a future release?
I will look at this. I remember when I allowed grouping on numbers that I took the easy way out. I need to go back over how it works. I do suspect that doing ranges isn't going to be straight-forward.
