And it does indeed work (2.053)...
So we can have ufcs without any changes to the compiler, and we also
make it a *choice* for people who don't want to allow infinite
extendability, and don't want to deal with possible compiler
ambiguities.
The opDispatch could even be a mixin itself (I think).
What do you think?
Clever. But how does it work for properties? Pure/safe/nothrow
functions? Ref and out parameters? Note that properties specifically
are already problem for the compiler-implemented array-member syntax.
Bottom line: there's a lot of work to do to make UFCS work right. And
it'll require some language-level changes anyway if we want it to work
right.
