added a warning for this for LGroups in #1154. I only handled the LGroup case because the code path is very different for IGroups and the 0.35 release is long overdue.
alt2_a = Axis('a=a1,a0,a2')
res = a[alt2_a.i[0:3]]

# assert res.key == ['a1', 'a0', 'a2']
# but we have this instead
assert res.key == slice('a1', 'a2')
assert res.axis is a
