Do you think if statement as expression would be nice to have in D?

Things that makes code *easier* to read is always something any 
language designer should be willing to consider IMO. I guess 
null-specific operators could qualify.

Perhaps there is some generic way to do async/await, so 
developers could use it for custom Promises?  Otherwise 
async/await is sort of out of place in @system, but fits well in 
@safe…

In general it would be nice if high level syntax is interacting 
through protocols so that one can use it for generic programming 
(like for-loops do).
