This one:
Collection c = new Collection();
c = c.filter!(x => x < 3).toCollection();
filter isn't a property of c, it's a range-producing function.
So I only have to define filter once, as a range accepting,
range producing function. And any container type, as long as
it can produce a range, can use this as a pseudo method (via
UFCS) to make a filtered copy of itself.

That's not a real example, that's pretty much the same example I
provided below the part you quoted.
