Unable to match version range with pre-releases

[Wiezzel]

I am trying to match all versions >=1.0.0 and <2.0.0, including pre-release versions. Unfortunately, >=1.0.0-rc, <2.0.0-rc1 doesn't do the trick, as pre-releases only match if some comparator has exactly the same major, minor or patch. Is it even possible to specify this kind of dependency?
