As does the compiler swallowing warnings in the content of an IsExpression as I already 
suggested.

I agree.
http://dlang.org/overview.html
under "Who D is for": "Programmers who routinely use lint or similar code analysis tools 
to eliminate bugs before the code is even compiled."

My impression from this has been that D aims to eliminate (or at least minimise) the need 
to use lint-type tools, by making the code smells lint is made to catch illegal code and 
therefore caught by the compiler.
