I've added reflection capabilities to an update to std.variant I'm

General functions work. (Although a few bugs with opCall and opDispatch
prevents the ideal syntax:
var.x(5) vs var.x = 5 and var.call(5) vs var(5), but I assume those will
be eventually fixed). I've
also added an internal type database, so you can auto-magically build a
Variant(TypeInfo, void*) or
Variant(Object) and then call methods on the real, underlying type.
Whoa nice. I'm eagerly waiting to see it. :)
Here's a snapshot I posted a while ago, if you'd like to have a look:

I'd love some feedback, particularly with regard to the runtime-reflection
API.
Templates, I think, will out of the range of dynamic D capabilities for
some time to come.
Yeah, 'cause I just realized they basically need you to implement the
entire compiler.
Yah, you'd need a VM.
