C# 7's tuples are something different though. They don't even

System.Tuple. The syntax is:

   (int x, int y) GetPoint() {

   }

   var p = GetPoint();
   Console.WriteLine($"{p.x}, {p.y}");

Would be nice to have in D. Both with and without named fields.

I mean it is not much shorter than in D

alias Point = Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y");
Point getPoint(){
    return Point(500, 400);
}

What would be nice though if tuples would be implicitly 
convertible to named tuples, if the types matches.

Tuple!(int, "x", int, "y") getPoint(){
    return tuple(500, 400);
}
