In that code there is both the [$] and the []s syntaxes. So it's 
better to submit them as two separated pull requests for the D 
front-end.

Lately Kenji seems a little less active, but he will probably be 
glad to review your code, fix it, etc.

Walter said that dmd 2.065 is meant only as bug-fix release 
(expecially ICEs) so no "significant" language enhancement 
requests will be added in dmd 2.065, and they have to wait for 
dmd 2.066. But dmd 2.065 is supposed to end quicker, so we will 
not wait a lot of time.

(Issue 3849 also suggests the "..." syntax inside array literals 
to fulfill a narrow corner case that Walter seems to appreciate. 
I think it's not an important syntax.)
