So you want it to work like this?:

    void foo() {...}
    void delegate() {...} bar;

    foo; // call it
    bar; // don't call it

Yuck.

It's already bad enough that we have this goofy mess:

    int func() {...}

    void foo(int a) {...}
    void bar(int delegate() dg) {...}
    template baz(alias a) {...}

    foo(func); // Calls func
    bar(&func); // Doesn't call func, just refers to it
    baz!(func); // Doesn't call func, just refers to it
    baz!(&func); // Error

WTF?
