Can operators "return" type?

D operators are functions, and D functions return values. And in 
D types are not values (unlike Python and several other 
languages), unless you use a Typeinfo or something.

Maybe if you explain better what you are trying to do someone 
will be able to suggest you an alternative solution. D is not as 
flexible as Lisp, but it doesn't lack 
meta-programming/type-processing capabilities.
