My understanding is that the "0..10" isn't actually a range notation,
and you need to use iota(0, 10). I may be wrong, but if I'm right,
hopefully someone can explain why this syntax works?
I remember there being a discussion about this recently; I'll see if I
can find it.
0..10 works with foreach. It's specific to foreach. iota also works, because it
produces a range rather being built in to the language. As such, iota works in
places _other_ than foreach. But 0..10 works just fine in foreach. It definitely
pre-dates iota.

Ah, then I guess I just need to learn me some D. Sorry for the noise.
No, D needs to change, not you. Ah, consistency...
