Uhh, well:

struct FuncHolder
{
    void function(int)[char[]] funcs;

    void function(int) opIndex(char[] name)
    {
        return funcs[name];
    }

    void opIndexAssign(void function(int) func, char[] name)
    {
        funcs[name] = func;
    }
}

void foo(int x)
{
    writefln("foo: ", x);
}

void bar(int x)
{
    writefln("bar: ", x);
}

void main()
{
    FuncHolder fh;
    fh["foo"] = &foo;
    fh["bar"] = &bar;

    fh["foo"](3);
    fh["bar"](4);
}


Unless you're getting at something else?
