But why do you need to avoid the thread-local ones while crating your wrappers?
'cause i need only 'old-style' globals in my console. there is no guarantee from which thread console command will be executed, and i don't really need TLS vars in it. that is the 'tech requirement'.

(If your need is real, you can ask for the trait in the main D newsgroup).
alas, i can't really explain why this is necessary for everyone (to be included in language). except that if we have such powerfull metaprogramming abilities we should be able to access any piece of 'type definition' (ok, technically __gshared is an attribute, i think) info that compiler knows.

i think that '__gshared' should be part of type info, just like 'shared' is. variable can't be both 'shared' and '__gshared' anyway.

i'll think about asking that though.
