I don't know what's happening with this DIP, but I've recently 
encountered a real-world problem for which there is no palatable 
workaround that this DIP would likely solve:

https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/2184#pullrequestreview-120643123

My attempts to workaround the issue I posted at
https://forum.dlang.org/post/uhgzgmowqcczczrdtsol@forum.dlang.org

That PR may be useful for motivating this DIP.
