The problem I have with the upper limit on the number of range sets is the
use case someone posted for JPEG2000 streaming. That has a lot of range
sets but is completely legit. However, the ranges are in ascending order
and don't overlap. Maybe we could count overlaps and/or non-ascending order
ranges and fall back to 200 + the whole object if it exceeds a limit.
