Issue ID: 15390
Summary: 'abstract' should override final:
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86_64

class X
{
final: // <- naturally, this is the first line in any D class
...
abstract void f(); // <- error, can't be abstract and final!
}
I think abstract should override final in this case, and not be an error...?
Without the ability to do this, you have to use final { ... }, and have little
blocks littered throughout classes, which is really unpleasant. That causes an
extra indentation level, making it hard to follow; class members look like
they're in a function because they're indented an extra level.
