Actually it does... but only partially:

struct match //ditto  for replace
{
     //current behavior
     static void opCall(T)(T s)
     {
         writeln(s);
     }

     //get the first match / replace only first occurance
     static void first(T)(T s, int k)
     {
         writelen("FIRST: ", s);
     }

     // force to find all matches (still lazy range) and
     static void all(T)(T s, int p)
     {
         writlen("ALL: ", s);
     }
}


void main()
{
     "abc".match(); //works
     "abc".match.first(42); //doesn't
}


There's got to be some way out of it that doesn't involve alias this and 
proxies...
