all these languages have special stream types for raw data. I don't
think it's bad if we also have streams/ranges separate in D.
Do you see a point to be able to, in an algorithm, seamlessly swap a
socket with a string?
Certainly NOT a socket. There is no escaping the fact that there are
specifics to unbuffered direct streams.
What you mention only makes sense with buffering either implicit or (I'd
prefer) explicit.
empty-front-popFront works with streams and non-streams. Why break this?
Pipe dream.
