I agree. And it's in definite need of an overhaul. It's a good start, but in 
particular, all of the range stuff in it is completely new, and it definitely 
needs work even just from an API standpoint. I expect that in some cases, 
we're going to either have to break people's code or create std.container2 to 
sort it out, and that's not even taking the custom allocators into account 
(though depending, they may be able to be added without actually breaking any 
code).
