That's a lot of duplication considering D already provides this

likely that toString, toHash, opCmp, and opEquals will be

in which case you'd need a derived class which implemented them

In other words, the plan is to pretty much deprecate Object? I
hope there would be appropriate replacement before this happens.
Users should be able to have a standardized API and a default
implementation for these methods.
Is phobos going to introduce interface such as Printable,
Comparable, etc.. ? (names tentative, I'm more worried about the
semantics).
