--- Comment #52 from Vladimir Panteleev <[email protected]> --- Well, do you really think that saving a few seconds is worth the potential confusion? Let's look at the title now: > need 'this' to access member when passing field to template parameter (Consider that the reader is not familiar with this error message.) Who is the entity needing "this", the compiler or the programmer? Where does the error message end? Is it just "need 'this'"? "need 'this' to access member"? Or is the entire line coming from the compiler? What should I give to "grep" when searching the DMD source code? Besides, how many times are you going to type that command line? What takes longer, editing the issue title, or editing the commit message on the command line (or a text editor, as Jacob suggested)? --
