IIUC, these are hard coded ranges. Can you please explain how this "easy
workaround" will have to be defined in the general case (the case I have)
where there's varying data scales depening on the actual data? Say, where
one data set covers the range 2004-2015, another data range will cover
2009-2012.

Thanks.
