This is a great syntax and I am doing this :p.
But there are many many many many issues associated with this (I
mentioned that I wanted them natively, templates are problems).
The library needed a significant coding and still to match with
immutable, support from phobos - it is tough.....
C++ also has some of these implementation (SystemC) - but that
did not made it acceptable to embedded systems programmer. Again
a library will not allow me to extract last drop from my HW - for
every library and everybody :). The internal implementation of
these libraries are memory hungry and not embedded systems
friendly.

What about this syntax:
UnsignedBits!(179, 0) a, b;
UnsignedBits!(179, 0) result = a + b;
Or better:
alias ubits = UnsignedBits!(179, 0)
ubits a, b;
ubits result = a + b;
