I investigated, and that's not it.

It's *just* that std.array.join, like std.algorithm.joiner, expects the
separator to be a range.

The enhancement request here would be for both "std.array.join"
std.algorithm.joiner" to accept a single element as a separator.

In the meantime, of course, a simple workaround is to just "join([sep])".

I think this needlessly allocates a 1 element array though, no?

--------
On a side note, the current restrictions in join are overly restrictive,
requiring an exact match, making this illegal:

   int[] sep = [1];
   double[] z = [[0.1], [0.2]].join(sep);

When it is perfectly supported: joiner supports it.
