I completely missed the review/voting, sorry, though mine would 
have been a "no" too, for the in my opinion inappropriate use of 
string mixins in the API. If you find yourself to be needing to 
stringify a passed in type for use in a string mixin, you are 
doing something wrong, as it is near impossible to make this work 
reliable. There are many other pitfalls than the one mentioned in 
the docs, e.g. with renamed imports, protection specifiers, …

I hope that this module will continue to be improved as a DUB 
package, though, because there certainly is interest in a solid 
implementation, even if signals are currently not really part of 
the "go-to D toolbox" for most people right now. Who knows what a 
later round of review might bring once the library has seen some 
more adoption in the wild.
