[Wien] Limits for hybrid mixing coefficients

The exact-exchange term in the hybrids is strictly speaking element
dependent, a bit like U (in LDA/GGA+U) but hopefully less dependent
upon the environment. I wonder if there are some limits that one can
(physically) place on it, for instance that it should go to 1 (or 1/2
say) as the occupancy of a d-level (or f) goes to zero?

Any comments from anyone.
