Is it possible to use Vec<u64> inside the shader by mapping it to array<vec2u>?

What I've been doing so far was to use array<u32> with double size, but that makes indexing quite complicated, because I have to use

arr_in_shader[index * 2] and arr_in_shader[index * 2 + 1]
instead of
arr_in_shader[index][0] and arr_in_shader[index][1]

I would think if the sizes are exact, then this would be possible, but are the numbers equivalent byte-wise?
I wouldn't want the data to be misaligned due to e.g. padding; And I couldn't find anything about this yet.

Yup, that will work exactly as you'd expect. vec2 is align 8, size 8; just like u64.

Thanks! :)
