DJ, this is awesome, thanks!

My only input is on the first feature -- for indexes where one or more  
components are variable length, it would be nice to specify an offset  
against the end of the index rather than against its beginning.   
Typically that's done by specifying a negative offset.  Perl's  
substr() is a near-example, except that it takes an offset and a  
length rather than a starting and an ending offset.  I don't have the  
bandwidth right now to think all the way through the best way to  
implement this, but thought I'd throw it out there.
