I suggested in the pseudo namespaces thread using template
parameters to express characteristics, as in:
remove!(stable, linear)
with sensible defaults so most of the time the user would just
use:
remove
The nice thing about this is that it can be easy to specify which
complexities an operation supports.

void remove(complexity, T)(List!T list, size_t index)
if(complexity >=
Complexity.linear); //or however complexity objects work...
List l;
//...
l.remove(3);
l.remove!(Complexity.polynomial(2))(3);
l.remove!(Complexity.constant)(3);//fails; there's no template
specialization for this case because complex < linear.
