For things like that I have a series of util mixins, for example:

class Foo
{
    int x;
    int y;
    char[] name;
    this(int x, int y, char[] name)
    {
        mixin(initMember!(x, y, name));
    }
}

And even if I didn't, I've never considered the repeated "this." or "s.", 
etc, to be non-trivial enough to really be worth an extra language 
construct - and I'm normally a complete DRY-maniac.
