           Summary: std.algorithm.skipOver should support multiple args
                    like startsWith
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Phobos
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: peter.alexander.au gmail.com

e.g.

string s = "fooey";
assert(skipOver(s, "foo", "bar") == 1 && s == "ey");
s = "fooey";
assert(skipOver(s, "bar", "foo") == 2 && s == "ey");
s = "fooey";
assert(skipOver(s, "far", "for") == 0 && s == "fooey");

If there are multiple overlapping matches, I think it should match the longest
one as that preserves the most information, and makes it useful in maximal
munch parsers. e.g.

string s = "fooey";
assert(skipOver(s, "foo", "fo") == 1);
