We discussed this a bit, in past. That syntax gives problems. This is better:

> int[1000] a = [1, 2, ...];

This is nice, but as we said in past, the need for this code is not that common. I've never needed this so far (while as example I'd enjoy to use an array comprehension syntax about every 20 lines of D code, or tuple syntax about as often).
