Char representation

Given the following code:

  char[5] a = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'];
  alias Range = char[];
  writeln(is(ElementType!Range == char));

One would expect that the program will print true. In fact, it 
prints false and I noticed that if Range is char[], wchar[], 
dchar[], string, wstring, dstring
Unqual!(ElementType!Range) is dchar. I find it odd that the 
internal representation for char and string is dchar. Is this a 
bug?
