negative indices in array ranges

I'm still not talking about saving it for future use, I explained my reasons why I don't think "range" is a fitting name.

To put it in clear text: I don't think "range" fits what the function does.

In my opinion, reusing copy_value sounds like a much better idea. Changing it's name to "copy" sounds like a great idea.

Did anyone do any with the old suggestion of making the number of levels copied by copy_value a parameter?

IMO that hypothetical future function doesn't weigh heavier than the one being discussed here. This one will be used quite often and "range" is a fitting name for it.
