Research direction
The payload names no files; start by locating the library's seek implementation and the public API that exposes it, since the request is to change what that call returns. Read the twelve-comment thread first, as the maintainers debate the return shape and this is likely a breaking API change for existing callers. Done means seek yields a start-end range usable to fetch only the needed segment, with current offset-based behavior reconciled. No assignee or linked pull request exists, and the thread has been quiet for over a decade.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
It would help a lot if seek would return the range of the segment instead of the ony the starting offset incase I want to download only the needed segment.
