This is interesting. The list of limitations seem quite minimal. You 
mention:

'Due to several bugs in the compiler even the D2 version requires you to 
register a serializer when serializing through base class references'

Is there a list of these bugs? Would resolving these bugs remove the 
need for registration functions?

Would it be possible to have a library like this in Phobos? Are there 
any performance gotchas?
