std.range.Proxy uses .at!(i) to access items, while std.typecons.Tuple uses .field[i] to access items. Is it possible for them to use the same syntax&name to access single items?

(A more general comment about the situation: Zip yields Proxies, this is probably done for efficiency, but makes Zip itself less standard. If Zip yields Tuples instead this allows people to use it in a more standard way. To maximize interoperability D2 needs to standardize more its usage of Tuples. A possibility is to move the Proxy struct to std.typecons and consider both Tuple and Proxy the two standard ways to create tuples in D2.)

Zip yields proxies because it needs to support accessing stuff by reference and there's no such thing as a ref tuple right now.  Proxy contains pointers, not values.
