I don't understand why you would want a private symbol in a *documented* unittest, the reader of the *documentation* will not be able to run the example code.

I can do the same thing in ddoc, but without the benefit of having the unit test run.

You mean not using a unittest?

Forcing me to do it that way is just annoying (I will have to duplicate the code).

If you really want your documented unittests not to be runnable by a user, you can have a free function with `protected` access as a workaround.
