Fields with the same name not causing a warning?

[Vinay Sajip]

This code should IMO give at least a warning, but it doesn't:

abstract class A {
     int kind;
}

class B : A {
     int kind;

     this(int k) {
         kind = k;
     }
}

In my actual code, the declaration of field "kind" in B was left 
in accidentally. Surprisingly, however, no warning was emitted 
when I compiled this, leading to B having two fields called kind 
which are distinct from one another. The complete program

import std.stdio;

abstract class A {
     int kind;
}

class B : A {
     int kind;

     this(int k) {
         kind = k;
     }
}

void main()
{
     auto b = new B(4);
     A a = b;

     writeln(b.kind);
     writeln(a.kind);
}

prints

4
0

Given that this is the kind of thing that is easily done, surely 
the default behaviour should be for the compiler to emit at least 
a warning that field "kind" is ambiguous in B? This behaviour 
occurs even when the field is declared as "public" or "protected" 
in both classes. What am I missing?
