Why would you bother? Using DMD 1.015, the code to generate an AST is *very* 
short (less than 2 lines of code per operator). <g>
It's far more flexible than a built-in solution would be.

All we need is a bit of syntactic sugar to allow us to generate
mixin(func(`x+y`, `"abc"`));
when we type
func(x+y, "abc");

We can do everything else already. <g>
