I do like the idea of it being called 'static foreach' instead of
'foreach', to keep in step with how the rest of the language
handles other compile time constructs (static assert). Plus, as
you said in your bugreport, visual disambiguation between that
and a runtime foreach is nice feedback for the programmer to pick
up instantly.
