For ranges there are concepts like Input Range. A struct/class
must have several methods to be compliant. You can check the
compliance using function isInputRange
https://dlang.org/library/std/range/primitives/is_input_range.html
Maybe something similiar can be done here. Not checking
individual methods, but concepts...
Kind regards
