?: already works at compile time, at least in D2. I use it all the time.

   template cat(string a, string b, bool addSpace)
   {
       enum string cat = a ~ (addSpace ? " " : "") ~ b;
   }

   static assert (cat!("foo", "bar", false) == "foobar");
   static assert (cat!("foo", "bar", true) == "foo bar");

Is that what you meant?
