May I cast like:
struct Point

float x, y, z;
float r, g, b, a;

Point[] points;
void foo(float[] float_array) {};
foo(cast(float[]) points); // is it safe?
May be more elegant way do express this exists?
Thanks
Not entirely. Try adding `align(64)` to struct declaration and
observe funny change ;) It is clearly some low-level hack and not
something for usage in normal code.
One can create array from struct instance via [ point.tupleof ],
but this will allocate as all array literals do.
