Am I (and possibly you) the only one(s) who think that sorting multiple arrays in parallel should be standard library functionality? The standard rebuttal might be "use arrays of structs instead of parallel arrays". This is a good idea in some situations, but for others, parallel arrays are just plain better. Furthermore, with D's handling of variadic functions, generalizing any sort to handle parallel arrays is easy.
