Suggestion: it would be clearer if the two concepts were
separated:
1. Convert 'int[] VarArr;' so it produces a straightforward
_value-type_ variable array, called 'VarArr';
2. Implement a new concept 'int slice Window;' to produce an
object of type 'int slice', called 'Window'.
'Window' is a 'slice' into an int array, not an array itself
or even a variable.
Opinions?
Yes, that's what Rust does. It has first-class variable-size
value types, D doesn't have such a feature.
It is too late to change it in D, nor is it often useful in
practice.
