static immutable that has no initialiser - should this raise an error?

static immutable T foo;
T bar() {
return foo;
}
Should we get an error from the D compiler here as the
initialiser has been forgotten? What do you think ?
I realise that foo is initialised to a defined value according to
the type T, and this does seem to be the case here because foo is
placed in readonly data (in the code segment on my x86-64
machine) but it doesn’t seem like plausible code as foo can’t
really be used for anything useful. Built this with GDC and
inspected the generated asm.
