Yeah, we've very fundamentally never supported that. Not for show, but 
also not for anything else (ie "gitk a..b c..d" does _not_ give you two 
ranges).

It's easy to see why once you understand what 'a..b' really means (ie it 
just expands to '^a' and 'b'), and how it's not really a "range" operation 
as much as a set operation that interacts with all the other arguments 
too. But unless you're very aware of that, it can be surprising.
