I see that your approach can handle functions and delegates but
isn't that not equivalent like this template for a function?
auto myStuff(T)(T function() fn) {

}
}
You cannot pass a delegate to something that expects a function
pointer.
I wonder if I could use such a template as static variant and
the compiler just expands the code? Just thinking that using a
function or delegate is an overhead. Maybe not a function but a
delegate will allocate GC memory I think.
If you pass the delegate as a template parameter/alias parameter,
it's more likely to be inlined:
auto myStuff(alias fn)() {
try return fn();
catch (Exception e) { }
}
myStuff!( { /* some code */ } );
