I'd welcome if that happens. My personal favorite is "align", it is 
common, hard to replace word when one works with text/graphics/forms/
layout stuff, and as D keyword, it is rarely used.

Some other candidates are at http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/
attribute.html, maybe except "auto", it feels more like command to me 
than attribute.

What about immutable/const - are they @attributes?. Also function 
parameter attributes = in/inout/ref - will it be possible to apply 
attribute to fn parameters?

(It seems that what should be @attribute and what not is for big 
discussion.)
