tl;dr: the currently proposed syntax options are:

struct S

int a = 2, b = 4, c = 6;

void foo()

bar(S({c: 10})); // Option 1
bar(S(c: 10)); // Option 2
bar(S{c: 10}); // Option 3

So the struct-initialization DIP has been stalled for too long
and I think it's time we finally get this story done.
I personally prefer option 2, but this might be in conflict to
named arguments which we hopefully see in the near future too.
Hence, I'm leaning forward to proposing Option 1 as the
recommended Option for the DIP (that's also what the PoC DMD PR
implements). What's your take on this?
DIP: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/pull/71

I also prefer option 3. From a readability point of view it is
the most pleasant one (my personal opinion). I also like it due
to the already existing struct initialization syntax I am using a
lot.
Kind regards
