Like I said, I wouldn't expect it to be part of the D spec.  It could be 
just some sort of temporary thing that serves its purpose while C plus 
plus gets phased out of existence.  I think D would win over C plus plus 
programmers much more quickly if it made the use of their old code as 
easy as possible.  D, After winning the same massive popularity as C 
plus plus has enjoyed, would then no longer need such a capability.
