It seems that the region specification does not support the RA/Dec
limits, or the Glon/Glat limits, etc etc. All polygon boundaries in ADQL
Region are great circles.
-- Is that correct?
Therefore I assume the recommendation will say that such regions should
NOT be implemented with ADQL Region, but should be implemented directly
in the SQL query like this:
RA between 200 and 210 and Dec between 20 and 30.
