I could swear that I've recently been using a language that does exactly 
that (with 'c' falling in the same category as 'a'), and have been very 
happy with how it handles that, but I can't remember what language it was 
(it was probably Haxe, maybe C#...I guess it wasn't D ;) ). So yea, I'm all 
for it (with 'c' acting like 'a').
