Most of the documentation at
https://dlang.org/spec/declaration.html#alias uses examples of
the form: `alias aliasName = other;`, where `aliasName` becomes
the new name to reference `other`. Alternatively, one may write
`alias other aliasName;`. My understanding is that the syntax
with `=` is the preferred one stylistically.
However, when it comes to `alias this` declarations, the only
syntax supported is `alias other this;`, and one cannot write
`alias this = other;`.
Does this mean that the `alias other aliasName;` syntax is
preferred, or does it simply mean that this is a low priority
issue that hasn't been addressed yet?
