Indeed, D does not overload based on return type ever.

It does factor into type matching when a function pointer is used, for

Yes, that may be the only time return type is factored in, but 
practically speaking, a function overload set that overloads solely on 
return type is not directly callable (you will get ambiguity error), so 
there is little point to create such a situation.
