putting it in Foo simply puts it in a namespace.<
So my (wrong) idea of immutable applied to a struct was that every thing in
such namespace becomes immutable (I think this is a bit more intuitive).
What do you think of modifying D2 so in a situation like the one I've shown
even static arguments become const/immutable? Can this cause troubles to other
things?
Thank you to you and Lars T. Kyllingstad for the answers.

Immutability (somewhat) guarantees the value will never ever change. The
static attribute could be changed by a non-immutable instance, and can
therefore not be immutable. It could be const for the immutable
instance, but I don't see the gains from it.
I do, however, see the gains from not being able to access the static
members through an instance.
