Ugh, D's template syntax is far from superior :-(.

What kind of type reflection are you thinking of? C++ has static 
type traits and some very limited dynamic reflection for classes 
with virtual functions, but C++ is nowhere near Python's 
capabilities.

C++ does have a special interest group working on reflection:
