It looks like the old range syntax is still supported; the new syntax is strictly an addition.

Seems worth noting; I was initially alarmed when I stumbled over this.

That syntax for blank searches also applies to blank multi-faceted searches, where you need to use q=*:* in order to get the top-level facet counts (otherwise the search just results in an error).
