I'm compelled to make a slight tweak to that:

import std.variant;
struct Extendable
{
    Variant[string] properties;
    Variant opDispatch(string name)() {
       return properties[name];
    }
    Variant opDispatch(string name, T)(T t) {
       properties[name] = t;
       return properties[name];
    }

    // Tweak Start
    void crystal()
    {
        this.wild = true;
        this.sweet = true;
        this.cool = true;
    }
    // Tweak End
}
