I think this would be a good idea.
Consider using inversion lists. They don't require pairs of integers;
each value represents a flip. They have other nice properties too,
though it's been a while since I looked at them so I can't name them. I
think Kim Storm posted a sample Lisp implementation of the data
structure in emacs-devel a while ago; I can dig it up if you're
interested.
