Sorry to bump, but it also isn't hard to use mixins to write more 
generic get/set.

import std.stdio : writeln;

struct Foo
{
	private int a;
	private int b;
	
	void set(string variable)(int x) @property
	{
		mixin(variable ~ " = x;");
	}
	
	int get(string variable)() @property
	{
		return mixin(variable);
	}
}

void main()
{
	Foo foo;
	foo.set!("a")(1);
	foo.set!("b")(2);
	writeln(foo.get!("a"));
	writeln(foo.get!("b"));
}
