see std.traits.getSymbolsByUDA

http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/std.traits.getSymbolsByUDA.html

there's some caveats, like it only searches one particular parent 
symbol for its children

(that's because the way this works is you reflect through 
children checking each symbol child's uda list to see if it is 
present)

but it basically works for many things at least contained 
per-module. you can pass each module you care about in though to 
generate a more full list
