With the fix Hans-Bernhard submitted, the problem seems quite solved
for me. Version 4.6 behaviour is restored, I see no technical reason
to hold up 5.0.1 any more.

I've uploaded two small patches for the docs and for the
errormessage when someone tries to rename the dependent variable
(still named it "y").

Perhaps the final result output should always report _any_ range
specs that was in place during the fit:

I find it pretty obvious that a range filter might cut off an
outlying datapoint. If that range is specified in the "fit" command,
the user should be well aware of it. What concerns me more is that a
forgotten "set zrange" from the last 3D plot could cut off half the
datapoints in a fit and it's never noticed.
