Bug or feature? iota has different semantics for integer and float arguments

Consider:
```
import std.range.iota;
auto r = iota(5, 0);
```
`r` is an empty range, as it should be. But if you call:
```
auto r = iota(5.0, 0);
```
then you get an exception (incorrect startup parameters).
This was unexpected, and a pain to debug. What is the rationale
behind iota having different semantics depending on whether the
arguments are floats or not?
