Is there any particular reason why we cannot put static-predicates on an 
array-type, such as (e.g.) to ensure that some condition always holds?

Example, we want an unbounded array, but to ensure the first index is 
always 1:
     Type One_Based_Vector is Array(Positive Range <>) of Integer
       with Static_Predicate => One_Based_Vector'First = 1;
