You can use "super const". We should be really really careful about
adding new keywords; D already has tons, and I have a feeling we don't
want it to become Cobol or dBase.
If there are ways to stay away from new keywords, we'll do so. I do
realize that no matter the syntax, there will be people who won't like
it. But avoiding adding keywords liberally is an overriding desideratum.
