That X-Range header was an experiment me and Faidon tried for the ogv.js media player I've been prototyping (Flash fallback version) . We couldn't get the extra header -- or the regular Range header -- to work through

What problem did you experience? At first glance, the range header appears to work for me. (Although whether varnish actually caches ranged responses is unclear)
From the Flash level we can't actually send the Range header as it's
blacklisted; the theory was to send a secondary header which we could translate in Varnish; I don't recall the details now of whether that translation was flaky or whether Flash still wouldn't even send that header.
