That's why I wrote "don't be hasty" ;-)
accumulate is generic right now: You can code the steps explicitly, or you
can plug in your own accumulate function. Writing "lower" and "upper"
for
Comparable (or Date) is a matter of 100 LOC each.

Which is why I prefaced with "if it can work that way..." A
JIRA can be for
feature requests, and that's what this would be. Whether just adding a
Comparable based accumulate function is the solution, or making accumulate
generic like "from" is now, a JIRA does not have to specify the solution,
just the request.

Now don't be hasty with a JIRA. Using Comparable for the arguments of the
min and max accumulate functions will give you a result that is --
Comparable. So:
$min: Comparable() from accumulate( Schedule( $d: date ), min( $d ) )
OK, this will give you the minimum data, bound to $min, although it won't
let you write any constraint for the "Comparable" result fact. But, what's
worse, it will not let you write
$min: Number( intValue > 100 ) from accumulate( X( $y: y ), min( $y ) )
any more (unless I'm very much mistaken).
