Is there a concept in D similar to Rust's `collect`:

If not, I'm eager to implement it to support D-style containers.

What would the desired interface look like?

Perhaps:

    0.iota(n).collect!Array

Or can/should we just overload `std.conv.to` as

    0.iota(n).to!Array

eventhough the element type is not explicit in the expression `to.!Array`?

If an entity (i.e. container) implements OutputRange API, you can already do it:

0.iota(n).copy(container);
