--- Comment #5 from Andrej Mitrovic <andrej.mitrovich@gmail.com> ---
It seems the bottom-line problem is this:

-----
import std.array;
import std.range;

inout(char)[] sanitize(inout(char)[] input)
{
    auto app = appender!(inout(char)[])();

    // fails because of inout(char) as the element type
    static assert(isOutputRange!(typeof(app), inout(char)));
}
-----

And it fails because of this strange nested declaration inside of the put method:

@property ref E[] EArrayInit(); //@@@9186@@@: Can't use (E[]).init

std\range.d(656): Error: inout on return means inout must be on a parameter as
well for @property ref inout(char)[]()

I guess this was some kind of funky workaround, but it causes issues for 12470. I'm not sure how to proceed yet.
