Well, I went and implemented the option of doing it Range
first, then Seed, so that UFCS works.
To reduce deprecation troubles there is a Bugzilla suggestion
to call it fold():

Bye,

Hum...
I can go either way. Both have their ups and downs.
*fold:
**No ambiguity during a migration
**No ambiguity regarding argument ordering
**Duplicates function names
**Changes a (relatively) established function name.
**Higher code impact if we deprecate reduce
*reduce
**Will create some ambiguity, as both reduce(r,s) and reduce(s,
r) will be valid.
**Will only impact reduce with seed if we deprecate the old
ordering.
I wouldn't mind getting a nudge in the right direction if
anybody has a stance on this (Andrei?)
Anyone?
The pull has been open for a bit more than a month now, with no
feedback...
