Please submit all cases that should work but are failing (in

It's honestly a bit scary opening my first bug report here. I
wasn't sure if it was just something that I'm overlooking about
the behavior. However, I've investigated a bit further and I can
see that it only applies to ByLine (a string[][], for instance,
works). I put that additional knowledge into the bug report:

Thanks for your work! nWayUnion is a pretty darn slick
algorithm.
Thank you too. I was about to write my own range-based solution
to solve this problem and just happened across nWayUnion while I
was looking for useful components. I was close to coding my own
solution (using the heap from std.container, no less) and found
out that my solution was already written. I've run across many
such gems in the standard library and it never ceases to amaze me
just how flexible, effective, and (usually) fast everything is.
