Not that I have a say in this matter, but although I think the code is 
excellent in technical merits, is not a central part of the problem it aims to 
mend actually an insufficiency in druntime?

I'd rather see the regular, language provided assert() fulfilling the needs as 
the assertion mechanism. Why would it otherwise be there? It would be like a 
language feature that nobody uses because it isn't good enough.. :/
