I should have been more clear - it's not the async/await bit I am
interested in so much as the Task behavior - that I have some
object which represents the (future) completed state of a task
without the recipient of that object having to know what the type
of the task function is as they are only interested in the task
result.
I'll take a closer look at vibe.d and see if they already have a
system representing this before I cook up my own.
