I used to feel similarly and understand where you're coming from 
but after using D for a while the old way feels ridiculous and 
cumbersome to me. The problem of accidents even in large files 
can be avoided by using names like "m_length" or "_length": no 
jury in the world will believe you if you write those then say 
you didn't know they were private.
