Python programmers have this "tee":

Hmm. But isn't that just the same as repeatedly calling .save
with D's forward ranges?

Not really, the python itertools.tee affords a sort of 'save' on
*inputRanges* (all python iterators roughly model inputRanges,
and nothing more) hence letting you simulate forwardRange: you
just have to promise not to touch the underlying range directly
after a call to itertools.tee and instead work with the resulting
split ranges provided.
I am a newcomer to D and I am looking for equivalent
functionality in phobos (so far I have not found). Is there a way
to convert inputRanges into forwardRanges, at the cost of extra
memory?
PS: thanks for your range calendar tutorial!
