Can we split things like range.d into a package module?  This should not break code now, correct?   Range.d is already 8000 LOC and presumably will grow as more ranges are added to phobos.

I think splitting big Phobos modules up is pretty much a given. All it takes is for somebody to submit a pull request to actually implement it. (And survive the inevitable bikeshedding flamewar over the naming of the submodules. But that's a given. :P)

Jonathan is already working on std.datetime, one of the Phobos heavyweights; std.algorithm is the next big heavyweight for whoever wishes to tackle it. Probably std.range is another heavyweight candidate.

So, let's see the pull requests.
