SINK, TAP
---------


https://github.com/schveiguy/phobos/blob/new-io/std/io.d

What about adding a single property named sink or tap depending
on how you want the chain to be. That could be either a struct or
a class. Each sink would provide another interface.


struct/class ArchiveWriter(SINK)
{
	@property sink		//pointer to sink
}



writer.sink.sink.sink
arch.sink.sink.sink.open("filename");


ArchiveReader!(InputStream) * reader;
