Are you suggesting that D should copy the modern C++ uniform 
initialization? That's one thing I don't like with C++ because it 
is very ugly.

D also don't need it because D has default initialization as 
standard. C++ added the uniform initialization (among other 
things) in order to create a syntax where variables are properly 
initialized. D got this right from the beginning.

In D the .init property is usually fine for most cases.
