Thanks for explanation, it's clear. That's how it's supposed to work and C++
works same way too, though it looks like premature optimization.
For me semantics of those 2 snippets is the same
int[] boo(inout int[] arr){
  return arr;
}
int[] arr = [1,2,3];
//first - works
int[] temp = boo(arr);
boo(temp);
//second
boo(boo(arr));
May be D can be less restrictive then C++ and this issue is just a feature
request :-).
