It already does this, I would say.
1. The D equivalent of your use of `#if ... #else ... #endif`
is `version() {...} else {...}`, which works in VisualD the
same way as you show. `static if` is different: the condition
often depends on the value of template parameters, so this does
not simply translate to "dead" or "alive" in every case.
2. typeid is a runtime concept (takes inheritance into account)
so this won't work in an editor outside of a debugging session.
However VisualD already shows the (static) type and scope of
variables on mouse-over, which is all you can wish for, I think.

Oh, maybe Visual D has been updated with it lately? When I made
the gif (some months ago?) you can see that no type information
is available.
