That said, there are other parts of D/Objective-C that could pose

"this.class" could perhaps be called "this.classof", at least that's
valid syntax. Although I don't know what to do about __selector.
Once this is merged in DMD, __selector could be documented to be
syntactically identical to a delegate (although semantically different)
and it could be made syntactically valid for regular D code compiled
with no Objective-C support (although it'd remain semantically
invalid). That'd allow you to hide it in version blocks and static ifs.
