Well, it's a good idea, but it's not satisfied yet.

Now we assume users want to ignore the slice feature
when the multi-range request is coming.

How about let slice directive support if scope?

Such as the following.

map $http_range $need_slice {
...
}

map $slice_range $x_slice_range {
...
}

server {
if ($need_slice) {
slice 100;
}

proxy_set_header Range $x_slice_range;
}
