Example:

arr1.reduce!((s, x) => s + (x / 3));

Because the natural seed value is arr1.front, depending on the type, this will
return an incorrect result, so you therefore need to provide a seed, using the
one-argument version of std.algorithm.reduce, this cannot be done.

You are therefore forced to use the standard syntax:

reduce!((s, x) => s + (x / 3))(0, arr1);

Or:

0.reduce!((s, x) => s + (x / 3))(arr1);



This seems counter-intuitive, compared to:

arr1.reduce!((s, x) => s + (x / 3))(0);


This change wouldn't play pretty.
