there is nice page by p0nce and it shows nice and simple `alias this`
trick usage:
http://p0nce.github.io/d-idioms/#Extending-a-struct-with-alias-this

and i have "stream.d" module in my IV package
( http://repo.or.cz/w/iv.d.git/tree ), which works with "i/o streams"
by testing if passed struct/class has necessary methods (`isReadable!`,
`isWriteable!`, `isSeekable!`, etc.
