For, say, sql query generator it would be nice to have a rewrite
like
sql!"select name from users where id={n}"
=>
auto q=query("select name from users where id=@p0");
q.addParameter("p0",n);
pragma(autoMixin)
template sql(string txt)
{
enum string sql=generateCode(txt);
}
If this can be rewritten as automatic string mixin like so:
sql!"select name from users where id={n}"
=>
mixin(sql!"select name from users where id={n}")
