There are currently two Phobos PR's that implement essentially

functionality, but in slightly different ways:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/1255
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/2343
From the discussion on Github, it seems to me that we should
only
introduce one new function rather than two similar but
not-quite-the-same functions. Since the discussion seems stuck
on
Github, I thought I should bring it here to the larger
community to see
if we can reach a consensus (who am I kidding... but one can
hope :-P)
on:
(1) What name to use (bring on the bikeshed rainbow)
(2) Exactly what functionality should be included.
(3) Which PR to merge.

Can you explain the utility of both of them? I am not big into
functional programming so I am not seeing it.
