To be exact, I want either of the following options (but not both 
of them):

1) I want to be able to call 'bar' with a static array

OR

2) I want to _not_ be able to call 'baz' with a static array

Either one of those options is fine by me. All I want is make D's 
static arrays behave logically (and either one of those options 
would do it).
