Hi!

I just wanted to suggest that some more keywords should be reserved.
First suggestions:
- property     -->possible future application: to explicitly declare
variables as properties
- bool            -->possible future application: boolean type
- virtual          --> not sure about this one...
the current keyword list is here:

This is already an alias in phobos for bit, and I like it that way.

Some more thoughts about virtual as a reserved keyword:
I don't think that virtual should be used in D, but
I think that people coming from C++ might get confused when they see
variables and functions called virtual.

That's quite good.
