Of course. that's why it's called "run-time" type info.
This is why i want a python-like duck typing support in Phobos.
No, variant won't do, it's for a completely different purpose.
It would be a single class, which represents any Object and would have
an opDispatch, which would redirect the calls to the underlying object
or throw an exception if the call is invalid.
