What do you mean by "don't have an appropriate place"?
The suggestion is that when a user does:
ALTER INDEX foo_minmax SET PAGES_PER_RANGE=100
they should get a NOTICE:
"NOTICE: changes to pages per range will not take effect until the index
is REINDEXed"
otherwise, we're going to get a lot of "I Altered the pages per range,
but performance didn't change" emails.
