Could we reserve void[T] for builtin set of T ?

Now that Andrei has finished the allocators, he's redesigning the
containers, and supposedly, std.container is going to be replaced with what
he's working on (it'll probably called something like std.collection). How
far along he is, or when he'll actually present anything approaching a final
design, I don't know. He's posted a container or two for discussion
previously, but they were more esoteric things, and he was clearly still
working on a lot of the overall design of how the containers in general
would be put together (e.g. how they would handle Big-O in their API). Once
Andrei is farther along, I'm sure that he'll be looking for contributions
towards filling out a full set of containers based on his general container
API, but for now I'd suggest that folks just use the EMSI containers.
