No misunderstanding; I realize that what you're proposing is a 
variadic function which takes some arbitrary set of 
variables/l-values passed by reference. The message was directed 
at those discussing rotate/roll/etc from other languages. It 
seemed nobody was aware this functionality was already available 
in Phobos though understandable since bringToFront is an unusual 
name for this function.
