And the spec says ...

When a client requests multiple ranges in one request, the
server SHOULD return them in the order that they appeared in the
request.

My suggestion is to reject any request with overlapping ranges or more
than five ranges with a 416, and to send 200 for any request with 4-5
ranges. There is simply no need to support random access in HTTP.
