Hi Andy,

This seems fine, it's nice to get rid of complex ->end calculations. But I 
wanted to mention another common case which is resetting the base to zero.
Are we expected to use resource_rebase() for those cases too? I've been 
thinking of adding something like resource_reset().

resource_rebase(res, 0) would work for those cases but it doesn't then  
carry the intent of "removing" the base in its name. Opinions?
