Any chance this will happen for D2?
If I remember correctly, one of D's design policies is
that a D code that looks like C code should behave like C.
Are we giving up that policy?
It is a good policy to follow but there are cases where C behavior may
differ from D behavior (when code is copy-pasted and not adjusted
according to languages difference). I've just posted an example in a
