Stuart & other readers:

I just asked about this in the other thread, and Jonathan mentioned that 
std.typecons.scoped can be used to accomplish the same thing.  So the 
functionality isn't being removed; it's just being moved from the 
language and into the library.

I think this is worth mentioning so that it doesn't look like we are
