A template for method forwarding?

stringof sucks, but it's easy to work with.

Your solution doesn't deal with method overloads. Passing in a method 
alias would work:

template Forward(string classname, alias method)
{
    mixin ("ReturnTypeOf!(method) " ~ method.stringof ~ 
"(ParameterTupleOf!(Method) parameters) {
	return composed." ~ method.stringof ~ "(parameters);
	}");
}

Except method.stringof doesn't work, so you have to do it like this:
template strof(alias method)
{
     const strof = (&method).stringof[2..$];
}

template Forward(char[] classname, alias method)
{
    mixin ("ReturnTypeOf!(method) " ~ strof!(method) ~ 
"(ParameterTupleOf!(method) parameters) {
         return composed." ~ strof!(method) ~ "(parameters); }");
}
