Currently, D supports the special symbol $ to mean the end of a

However, there is no analogous symbol to mean "beginning of a

I'm running into a dilemma for dcollections, I have found a way to make
all containers support fast slicing (basically by imposing some
limitations), and I would like to support *both* beginning and end symbols.
Currently, you can slice something in dcollections via:
coll[coll.begin..coll.end];

Does your collections library allow for code like
coll[coll.begin + 1 .. coll.end]
?
