Indeed, I've been wanting to write this before. IMO, not being
able to
write it is a serious inconsistency.
What is it inconsistent with?
Nevermind. I thought you could write "map!dup" like you can with
most other *functions*, but "dup" is a member property function.
In particular, things like "length"/"reserve" or whatnot are
actually free functions that take an argument, but not dup.
So UFCS tends to blur the line between both, and what can be used
where.
