I don't remember who had the idea originally,
but Norbert Nemec and me discussed it way back around 2004 and I added 
it when the wishlist went online.

For old posting search the news group for vectorization.
http://www.google.com/search?q=vectorization&domains=www.digitalmars.com&sitesearch=www.digitalmars.com%2Fd&sourceid=google-search&submit=Go

If you suggest a new syntaks, then try to write down the examples on
http://all-technology.com/eigenpolls/dwishlist/index.php?it=10
using it.

Most people is quick to suggest a new syntaks without actuly testing it
by writing down some non-trivial examples.
