He mainly hangs around the Tango forums.

I like having the option of pre-defined param symbols for closures. If a 
closure is trivial enough, then manually defining a custom-name can be 
overkill (but with D2's additional syntax suger for anon closures, it's not 
that big of a deal).

The problem I do have with it though, is that they're evaluated in the wrong 
scope.
