Not in the format: https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/Template.md
The trait ``properties`` could be genericafied i.e.
``__traits(getFunctionOverload, func, void, int)`` for ``void func(int)``
"If it is possbile for the paramaters to read and write to the
@property, then the inout parameter must be rewritten as two paramaters
that accept both the read and write functions of @property"
Needs a spelling and grammer pass.
However this example doesn't make sense to this specification.
``void void test(inout int x) { x += 1; }``
That variable ``x`` there, is for one ``const`` and can't be mutated,
and two isn't by-ref so it wouldn't affect the global anyway.
I'm a tad unsure about this.
Needs to explicitly mention that array slicing isn't possible.
