Nice but I saw problems with the use of `mixin`.
1. it supports severals arguemnts since a few years
2. it can be a rhs.
so for point 1
```d
mixin("alias ThisModule = " ~ __MODULE__ ~ ";");
```
can be rewritten nowadays, without concat,
```d
mixin("alias ThisModule = ", __MODULE__, ";");
```
and for point 2
```d
alias ThisModule2 = mixin(__MODULE__);
```
otherwise I enjoy seeing a new generation hatching.
