Some discussion here:

I understand the argument about not allowing version(X && Y), but I do
think this construct is ugly:
version(Foo) {} else { //code
Defining a version identifier NotFoo as well as Foo would be a bad
solution.
What's wrong with:
version(!Foo) {}
This is one of the few areas where D is idealistic instead of pragmatic.
For some reason Walter has decided unlike most things, this needs to be
forced upon everyone.
This reminds me of banning goto and multiple returns because 'structured
programming' prevents goto spaghetti madness. As always, it simply forces
the programmer to jump through more hoops to get what they want.
