P.S., am I too late to complain about the choice of 'return' in 
DIP25? :)

If someone who learned C(++) but had used D read this

ref int opIndex(size_t n) return { // mark this as a non-escape 
reference
         return _payload[n];
}

I'm not sure if they could make heads or tails of what the first 
return is supposed to be doing.
