--- Comment #1 from Maksim Zholudev <maximzms at gmail.com> ---
The same can be done with string mixin:
--------------------
T opIndexOpAssign(string op)(T value, int index)
{
    return mixin("contents " ~ op ~ "= value");
}
--------------------

Anyway, the possibility to call operator as function (regardless whether it is
defined explicitly or not) for both built-in and user-defined types could make
this part of D more consistent.
