This syntax is currently disallowed by DMD.

I'm aware of the risk of a programmer misinterpreting this as

    if ((low < value) < high)

Is this the reason why no languages (including D allows it).

I'm asking for in some cases, where value is a long expression, 
it would be a nice syntatic sugar to use.

In the case of D, it's a C compatibility thing. Other languages I 
don't know.
