No, sadly no right now - it is not a pressing issue for things I need right now so I avoid investing too much thinking into finding sound solution, sorry :(

This +100000.

I use this stuff in all my D projects since I learned how to do it, and it's extremely useful -- but very clunky.

No, not a dealbreaker (at least for any of the code I've written,) I was focusing on objectively missing features rather than sentiments :)

That being said, multiple alias this should considerably expand the implicit conversion and composition options in D.
