Comment:

 > In order to get the Postlist's type, slot, begin, and end we would have
 to parse the string returned by get_description()

 No, we shouldn't be parsing descriptions for such things.

 Also, this optimisation really should be done before we've created the
 `PostList` objects for the `OP_VALUE_...` operators - it should look at
 the query internal objects (which will be of classes such as
 `QueryValueLE`).

 This can be added without an incompatible change to the public ABI so not
 a blocker for the next release series.
