Just a suffix like `[1,2]$` or `[1]s`. Then just use `auto

Gotcha. I think I would use that more than the current DIP
(though I prefer [1]s to [1]$).
You can do it today if you don't mind putting the marker in
front: https://run.dlang.io/is/E6ne4k (Its operator abuse.
What would you expect?)
Interesting approach! However, it doesn't really resolve my
underlying issue, which was that I would still need to import
that s struct.
To play the devil's advocate, it shouldn't be hard to change the
compiler config file to auto-import any module of your choice (it
config file would simply append it to the compiler command line).
That said, for me the unnecessary template instances generated
for each different type and array length is a bigger reason for
me preferring this DIP proposal, over the library approach.
