Bummer. I still think there's room for a formal trait to do this.
Complimentary to allMembers and getMember, but for a functions.

The function currently just splits the string on ",". It would be
possible to add a more sophisticated algorithm to handle delegate and
function pointer parameters.

It would basically mean having to parse D's full type syntax to be 100% correct, which is not cool. The compiler ought to help out here.

Some traits would be nice; allArguments, getArgument.

This would allow enumeration of argument lists in the exact same way as struct members.

D has gone hard out with its compile time meta capabilites, but there's just a couple of small things missing from the complete introspection set.
