Dart and few others modern languages support short declaration

it's there any DIP for adding this future to D?

I'd prefer that we didn't crowd the language with minor shortcuts 
like these, and save syntactic sugar for more useful features. 
Plus, it would be easy enough to make a string mixin which 
generates such boilerplate code.
