I don't know about that specifically, but I've been trying to do some range 
based programs and have found that Phobos in general needs to be gone through 
and "range-ified".

Ranges are a huge deal for D, perhaps even a killer feature, and Phobos ought to 
be a showcase for them (like STL is for C++).

(Why a killer feature? Ranges make "snap together" component programming 
actually work in D.)
