Description
I was thinking that it may be convenient and intuitive to use IntervalSets.jl's ellipsis notation as an alternative to Between(:a, :b):
df[:, :a..:b]
df[:, :a..end]
Sorry if this has already been discussed before.
Best,
Carlo

Research direction
Start by reviewing DataAPI.jl's existing Between API and the IntervalSets.jl ellipsis notation referenced in the issue. Clarify the intended behavior of :a..:b and :a..end, then inspect current API conventions and tests; done means the notation works consistently as an alternative to Between(:a, :b).
