but dmd 2.060 crashes, which is why I moved on to using a
static if.
That's 'outer', yet another half-done D feature. It should be
implemented for nested structs.
Half done? Has it even been implemented at all?
In any case my method seems to provide a solution to the problem
in the mean time. I have updated the code to work correct(had a
small bug) and it uses an alias to make it easier to update in
the future if D finally does support this construct in full.

If outer is the appropriate keyword then Parent can easily be
changed. Little would have to be done to the structs to make it
work. In fact, the method should work if D ever decides to
support such a feature with little change. Compile times could be
increased though by removing the templating, but unfortunately
that might require a lot of work. A mixin might simplify it.
