An array as an output range writes to the front. You can use
std.array.Appender to get appending behavior. I know, it's

Alternatively, you can add more bytes to the array, and append
to the slice, but that may be ugly/hard to do.

Hmm... isnt that't what the std.bitmanip.write function is for?
It even provides an index.
I could make an 8 byte buffer and then make a slice with the last
4 bytes and use append there, but it would be rather a hack
around something that should have worked.
Perhaps I have found a bug. Actually I am not sure because I am
not yet familiar with the way to use templates, so there is the
possibility that I am using incorrect arguments.
If only the documentation and/or test units were more clear...
