I am amazed at the mixin/import features. The ability we have to
arbitrarily generate code at runtime is.. something I never would have
imagined would come until D2.0.
I've been thinking about it, though, and I'm not sure if it's 100% the best
way to do it. The major advantage, of course, is that it doesn't introduce
tons of new syntax for building up code. However, I'm not sure I really
like the idea of building up strings either. It seems.. preprocessor-y.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still giddy with the prospects of this new feature.
But something about it just seems off.
