I use it in dcollections iterators to do increment and decrement, sometimes I
use the return value (which is a copy of the iterator before incrementing).
However, I wouldn't mind getting rid of opPostInc *if* opInc was a true
operator, instead of the hackish += 1, which makes no sense for iterators. I
have to put warning comments in the opAddAssign saying you should only call it
via ++i, because doing i += x can be an O(n) operation.
Yes, I know I could implement these as functions instead of operators, but the
syntax is so perfect for it, and it seamlessly fits with pointers.
