I hope you mean canFind!(true)([3, 4, 5]);. canFind!a fails for

Yes. I'm not really familiar with canFind or std.algorithms in general.

I don't see why defining empty in object.d is necessary for things that
don't involve ranges at all.
But arrays *are* ranges. Or at least they're supposed to be.

Man I would say the same thing about write() functions. I've missed
importing std.stdio so many times. It doesn't help that the compiler
happily asks me if I've missed an import to std.stdio. But I digress..
I use .length all the time.
