Do you mean to imply you cannot?

The LRM only says, 

"A range can be specified with a low and high bound enclosed by square
braces [ ] and separated by a colon ( : ), as in [low_bound:high_bound].
A bound specified by $ shall represent the lowest or highest value for
the type of the expression on the left-hand side. A match is found if
the expression on the left-hand side is inclusively within the range.
When specifying a range, the expressions must be of a singular type for
which the relation operators ( <=, >= ) are defined. If the bound to the
left of the colon is greater than the bound to the right, the range is
empty and contains no values."

Anyway, since so far I have only heard positive responses as to whether
one should be able to use 'inside' on real operands, I am going to make
that change in my proposal for 1035.

Thanks,
Shalom
