That would be like putting a semicolon after a while or if block 
or after defining a delegate inside an argument list.

I think it's a bug that dmd doesn't show a warning for 
unnecessary semicolons outside of function blocks, because inside 
of them it also shows a warning.

Also it's not D-style to put a semicolon there and it's also 
never specified in the grammar spec. It's just treated as 
separate empty statement.
