I don't think Jonathan was (merely) dismissing readable

foreach(i; 0 .. 5)

The only thing I'd want to be able to do is:
//----
foreach ( ; 0 .. 5)
{
writeln("hello");
}
//----
If I don't need a named variable, why force me to define a symbol?

I know I could just use "i" and move on, but when code starts
getting complex, and you already have i, j, k, ii, dummy etc...,
it can make a difference.
