That reminds me, will D templates ever be fixed not to auto-flatten

The mistake is that very early on, Larry decided to flatten lists by
default. Hence, if you write this:
@x = (1, 2, 3, (4, 5));
It automagically turns into (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Convenient, eh? Sure it
is. If you want to be your own father's sister, it's extremely convenient.
