There, found it again, while answering another thread:

int foo(int i, double d) { return 0;}

writeln(typeof(&foo).stringof); // "int function(int i, double d)" <-- Look
Ma, arguments names!

But it's a quirk of .stringof, I'm not sure it's a good idea to rely on it
too much.
from there, using compile-time search in a string, you can extract the
arguments (those are between ( and ) )
-> "int i, double d"
and from there, extracting i and d.

I don't what will happen for overloaded functions, methods names,
constructors, ...
