Setup (shared with #7399): ``` python import pandas as pd midx = pd.MultiIndex.from_product([range(5), ['a', 'b', 'c']]) s = pd.Series(range(15), midx) print(s.loc[2:4:2, 'a':'c']) ``` What I get: ``` 2 a 6 c 8 3 b 10 4 a 12 c 14 dtype: int64 ``` What I expected (the step should only apply to the first level): ``` 2 a 6 b 7 c 8 4 a 12 b 13 c 14 dtype: int64 ```
