Database Helper - Between clause

[eluser]The Revel[/eluser]
I was wondering is there was some sort of between clause for active record, for instance:

Code:

$query = $this->db->from('table')
                  ->where('date')
                  ->between('2012-04-01','2012-05-01')
                  ->get();

This would produce

Code:

SELECT * FROM table WHERE date BETWEEN '2012-04-01' AND '2012-05-01'

I am surprised this does not exist as a clause, and if it does I am surprised its not in the user manual.
