Ok, I misunderstood. I think proper tuples that can hold both 
types and values is the best approach, then add operators on 
tuples. C++ and D got it wrong by having some weird special cases 
for parameters, which is just annoying. Cannot be fixed for C++, 
but it is fixable for D.

Solid and generally useful tuples is the only basic feature D is 
missing (and move semantics, but not sure if that qualifies as 
basic).
