I think it looks beautiful and wished all the keywords used the 
leading underscores.

The reason is that the __keywords are reserved, so they don't 
conflict with user words. __traits was added somewhat late into 
the language, so using a reserved word for it meant less broken 
code. Now you can still call your own variables traits - I'd love 
it if all keywords were this way so we could, in theory at least, 
use the anywhere.

Anyway, std.traits wraps __traits reasonably well and doesn't 
have the underscores.
