Things like std.typetuple, while not being as broken as

I agree it shouldn't be considered a priority but if there is a
work done already there - why not?
It is funny how some thing come up again and again. Literally
everybody is confused as hell by tuples for ages.
As for json, Adam had some very nice work done on this. I'd love
to see what he did become part of std.json (or something similar
interfacewize).
