Should the following two uses be a compile-time error?

I would like the second to either be a compile-time error or automagically use a negative step.

So we need to use a negative step in iota() or use a for loop
  foreach(i; iota(10, 0, -1)) // as expected

Ruby and Groovy has this feature. I'd support this.
