Should I be using opEquals? Or something different? The problem with 'alias this' here is I want to wrap access to the insides with getter functions that do various things like logging and error checking.

I think you want to do an encapsulation like below.

```d
class Handler(T)
{
  T*[string] data;

  auto set(string key, ref T value)
    => data[key] = &value;

  auto opIndex(string key)
    => *(key in data);
}

void main()
{
  class Bitmap {}
  Bitmap foo;

  auto handler = new Handler!Bitmap;
  handler.set("D Lang", foo);

  assert(handler["D Lang"] == &foo);
}
```
