Plotting both horizontal and vertical point ranges simultaneously in ggplot

Is there a way to plot both horizontal and vertical point ranges together on the same plot in ggplot. I understand that geom_pointrange(...) plots vertical point ranges, and that horizontal point ranges can be generated with coord_flip(...), but I'm interested in putting both together on the same plot.

set.seed(1)
df <- data.frame(x=sample(1:10,10),y=sample(1:10,10), x.range=1, y.range=2)
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(df) +
  geom_pointrange(aes(x=x, y=y, ymin=y=y.range, ymax=y+y.range))

I'm looking for something like this:

ggplot(df) +
  geom_pointrange(aes(x=x, y=y, 
                      ymin=y-y.range, ymax=y+y.range, 
                      xmin=x-x.range, xmax=x+x.range))

Which of course produces the same output as above because the xmin and xmax arguments are ignored. Evidently, there is (was) a function geom_hpointrange(...) in ggExtra, but this package has been pulled as far as I can tell.

you can also call geompoint_range twice

ggplot(df, aes(x=x, y=y)) +
  geom_pointrange(aes(ymin=y-y.range, ymax=y+y.range)) + 
  geom_pointrange(aes(xmin=x-x.range, xmax=x+x.range))
