But your template mixin is still duplicating generic code that

Oh yeah, that can be done too.
Here's an example:
http://arsdnet.net/dcode/autoimpl.d
The mixin template is implemented by a helper function, which
loops over the interface methods and builds a code string for
it. It doesn't handle complex cases, like a setter without a
getter, but it is a start.
The pragma(msg) in there shows you the generated code when it
compiles, which can help debugging or just show you what's
going on, of course you can remove that when you're happy with
it.
This doesn't quite work(at least for me) and seems unstable.
Doesn't get all the attributes(what if you have a safe property?
And doesn't get methods. It is a start though....
