Map in std.algorithm doesn't really work like that. Many

I know that, I was expecting it to work with multiple ranges if
the
functor takes multiple arguments.
If you're trying to create an associative array from two arrays
A *lazy* range of associative arrays.
Aha, I see now. Here you go:
zip([1,3], [2,4])
.map!(e => [e[0] : e[1]])()
.writeln();
zip gives out a tuple, so I wish it were possible to do
.map!((a,b) => [a : b])()
instead and have it appropriately use the elements of the tuple.
Maybe that'd be a potential enhancement possibility for map?
