if needed, the operator !! (double exclamation mark) could be defined.
it is just an idea, i do not have any specific use in mind.
i encountered the operator in RT operating systems book:
c!!e sends the message e along channel c
c?x assigns to variable x the value from c
maybe this could be integrated with the concurrency somehow or used in
some other area.
This is not something important enough to warrant a language feature in
my opinion. And certainly not one that results in a Phobos dependency.
Making the operator overloadable does not result in a Phobos dependency.
Yes, I know.
But we can't base the decision solely on this fact. Then we could add a
million operators to the language just because they seem neat.
