           Summary: typeid() does not return correct type qualifiers for
                    fields

Test case 1:

module test;

import std.stdio : writeln;

struct A
{
    int[] c;
}

import std.stdio;

unittest
{
    const(A) foo;
    immutable(A) bar;

    writeln(typeid(foo));   // writes const(test.A)
    writeln(typeid(bar));   // writes immutable(test.A)

    writeln(typeid(foo.c));  // writes int[]
    writeln(typeid(bar.c));  // writes int[]
}

void main()
{
}

I'm not sure if this is a bug or an enhancement request. I would like the last two calls to writeln to print out this:

const(int[])
immutable(int[])


Test case 2:

module test;

import std.stdio : writeln;

class B
{
    int[] c;
}

import std.stdio;

unittest
{
    auto foo = new const(B)();
    auto bar = new immutable(B)();

    writeln(typeid(foo));   // writes test.B
    writeln(typeid(bar));   // writes test.B

    writeln(typeid(foo.c));  // writes int[]
    writeln(typeid(bar.c));  // writes int[]
}

void main()
{
}

If a class is involved, the type qualifiers are not printed out at all. So whether or not typeid was designed to return the qualifier, it should behave the same for classes and structs (unless I'm missing something, please correct me if I am).
