This can be seen as a flaw of staticArray.?.

 From my perspective it's more about having the ability to create 
self-evident code:

```
int[]     integers = [0..20];
int[$]  staticInts = [0..20];
int[]        evens = [0,2,..,20];
int[$] staticEvens = [0,2,..,20];
```
or something similarly obvious would be on my wishlist.
Of course this would not allow for powers of two, which is yet a 
step more involved.
