AIUI: Syntactically, it doesn't exist at all, at least not by itself. It's
just part of one of the foreach syntaxes:
'foreach' '(' {declaration list} ';' {expression} '..' {expression} ')'
and also part of one of the slice syntaxes:
(from the docs:)
PostfixExpression [ AssignExpression .. AssignExpression ]
Although it's possible I've understood it wrong.
Don't have a clue how it's handled beyond that though.
