Not exactly, µ would have to be a global with the same type/meaning  
everywhere.  I want to control the type per container, so the compiler  
would still have to treat it special, or I would have to use  
coll[coll.µ..$].

If I didn't want to control the type, I could of course use 0 to that same  
effect.

Besides, I can't type that character or any of those others (had to  
copy-paste), so I don't see it being a viable alternative :)
