In fact, I would be more interested in the opposite :
void main() {
auto foos = new Foo[100];
auto ints = new int[100]
ints = foos[].y;
}
This would simplify the wrinting of numerous application, especially
in the writing of image/video processing (eg. rgb2yuv conversions)
This would also simplify the writing of template library transforming
"array of struct" to "struct of arrays" in a transparent manner for
the library user.
