UDAs are a primo example of this.
OT: Why those are not allowed on module decls and local decls? We
can't use UDAs on decls in unittest blocks. We can't use a UDA to
mark a module reflectable, can't put an attribute on a
"voldemort" type, etc. Please don't introduce arbitrary
restrictions. That way you exclude many valid potential use
cases, a recurring pattern that constantly pisses of D users.
Features should be as general as reasonably possible. Otherwise,
they *do* make us go herculean lengths.
