To pipe in, I am a commercial developer using D1, (project size ~100k)
and some non-breaking but enhancing changes to D1 would be very welcome.

I believe I still have a kingdom up for grabs for my personal wishlist:

opIndexConcat
opIndexConcatAssign
+friends

Returning static arrays from functions.

!in (as sugar for (!(a in b)). Ok, this is just a nicety. Still... :) )


Is there even any remote possibility of a D1.1? (Which would not require
any changes or break any existing D1 code, but provides some .1
enhancements?).
