Note that the toy program is just an example, and has a lot of room for improvement.
Ultimately, I would love to have D support reflective programming and dynamic typing in the core language.
Walter and Andrei have been very gracious, and I am amazed and pleased with how D 2.0 is shaping up. There is plenty on the table for D 2.0 without having the added burden of reflective programming and dynamic typing.
So I do not expect that to happen for D 2.0. Maybe for D 3.0. And that is assuming that there is sufficient value to support the paradigms (which I think there is).
In the meantime, maybe a hand-rolled user implementation on top of D 2.0.
Food for thought.
