You're not really creating a rectangular array - what you're
making is an array *of arrays*:
int[10][5] a; // An array of 5 (int[10])
writeln(typeof(a).stringof); // int[10][5]
writeln(typeof(a[4]).stringof); // int[10]
writeln(typeof(a[4][9]).stringof); // int
The recently accepted `std.experimental.ndslice` module provides
a real multi-dimensional array interface:

(There might be something else relevant in Phobos as well, with a
less numerically-oriented focus; I'm not sure.)
