In MTZ files, free-R flags are usually from 0-19 (or 0-N, if you are not
using a 5% free set).

There is a good reason for this - if you are not sure whether your FreeR
is meaningful or not, you can re-run your structure solution using a
different, non-overlapping FreeR set just by telling each individual
program to use a set other than 0 as the test set. By this means you can
do a full cross-validation.

Has anyone ever used this in practice? I don't know. But it is a good
design feature.
