Regardless of this particular suggestion's value, I think you're wrong to dismiss readable terseness and saving typing as mattering, it's one of D's advantages over C++ that it makes a lot of things far easier to do and understand because they're not a horrid mess.
The difference is that D allows doing in a single instruction what C++ would require several. It is actually less *code*, less duplication, less potential for bugs: New FUNCTIONALITY.
What you are proposing isn't much of that, it's just making you type less...
