But I thought that was the province of std.algorithm?

BTW, are we going to split up std.algorithm anytime soon, now that we
have package.d? Jonathan is already working on splitting up std.datetime
into more manageable pieces, and it would be nice if std.algorithm can
be broken up into saner pieces too. (The last time I brought it up a few
people supported it, but I haven't had the time to do anything about it
so far.)
