I would like to set function's default struct for a function in
a way that it would be visible for the reader to see what
options are set. Something like `Options option =
{silenceErrors: false}`
Here is an example of what I would hope for to work but it
surely does not work:
```
import std.stdio;
struct Options {
bool silenceErrors = false;
}
void someFunction(Options option = {silenceErrors: false}){
writeln(option);
}
void main() {
someFunction();
}
```
Is it possible to make this part work in a simple way, maybe
I'm using a wrong syntax here?
```
void someFunction(Options option = {silenceErrors: false}){
writeln(option);
}
```
I would love to be able to use C style designated initialization
everywhere too..
Recent version of D added named arguments so you can do something
like:
```D
void someFunction(Options option = Options(silenceErrors: false))
```
I don't like the useless repeating "option option option", but
that's D for you
