Right. Better to change the name.
Regarding std.functional, are the HOF adjoin(), compose() and pipe() useful? I
don't think I'll use compose() or pipe(). If not enough people find them
useful, then they can be removed.
There is something that instead I'd like added (that I am going to put as
request in Bugzilla, maybe later today):
Apply functionality is quite useful, as shown by this small Python program that
prints "1, 2":
def foo(x, y):
print x, y
tuple1 = (1, 2)
foo(*tuple1)
That star syntax of Python is equivalent to this, that works still in Python
2.x:
apply(foo, tuple1)
The star syntax can't be used in D, but a good apply() function can be useful
in D too. There the tuple is of course a std.typecons.Tuple.
