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);
