but i still like the idea of getting more generic at the base :-)
the result will less special cases for the compiler and no 
that-can-only-the-compiler-do scenarios

but the downside - are the error messages then still that informative
and what is the code bloat in the end - but maybe walter found a way to
code-specialize the Array!/Assoc! (i hope to see better initalizers then 
- maybe static ones :-]) stuff for the standard datatypes - and then 
everything is fine ...

still waiting for D 3 - the concurrency wonderland ...
