You're welcome to submit suggestions if you think the current 
implementation can be improved.  Please note that any array routine must 
work for array literals, static arrays, and dynamic arrays, that 
duplicate generated code should be avoided whenever possible, and any 
default predicate should have its code inlined.  Also, predicate support 
must allow for any callable type, not just delegates and functions.
