Your proposal doesn't have anything to do with structured binding, though.
Normally (since C++17), when we see `[a, b]`, it means "we're
structured-binding to some structure that is going to be destructured
here." This *does* have applications to function parameters, but the
application would be, like,
auto magnitude(auto [x, y]) {
return sqrt(x*x + y*y);
}
auto coord = std::pair(3, 4);
auto five = magnitude(coord);
This is not C++20, but it's a fairly obvious notion that has definitely
been talked about informally, as well as having users ask about it:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45541334/can-the-structured-bindings-syntax-be-used-in-polymorphic-lambdas
So reusing any part of "structured binding" syntax, anywhere in this
general vicinity, for any purpose *other than* structured binding, is a bad
idea IMO.
