I like it.  Have you put in a PR yet?

Pretty devious. I think it's not unreasonable.

I think the really consistent part about formatting in Phobos is that the output tends to be semantically-correct syntax.

S(0, 0) is correct as you can construct an instance of `S` this way. But `C(0,
0)` would be semantically incorrect as that's not how classes are constructed.
You'd (likely) need to use `new C` and you'd have to care about which
constructors are actually implemented, so `new C(0, 0)` might not even be
semantically correct either.

Perhaps instead of changing default formatting a better option would be to have a format spec that dumps out the entire representation of the aggregate. "%s" is taken but we could introduce something else.

We could also just close this as WONTFIX.
