I may have missed it but was there an issue with using something with slice() to cover all of the skipping?

@juliantaylor: Alan Isaac made that suggestion on the mailing list, but there wasn't any response, and I'm not sure what the API would actually look like (e.g. how would such an argument interact with skip_header and skip_footer?) I'll ping the mailing list.

@WarrenWeckesser What is the status of this?

There was some discussion of the API in November; see the first thread here: http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2014-November/thread.html

I didn't find the suggestions compelling enough to consider implementing.
