Thank you, can't believe I missed that. How do I specify that
the
function expects a temporary/xvalue (&&) parameter though?
D doesn't have anything like that. The compiler will generally
move for you when possible. Passing an RValue to a function
will be done as a move. When returning structs from a function,
they're moved. For LValues, it's up to the caller to make the
move with std.algorithm.move. There's been a good deal of
discussion here in the NG about this. Hit google with 'dlang
move semantics' and you'll get some hits. There's also Ali's
presentation (video[1] and slides[2]) from last year's DConf.

Thank you for those links/pointers. I'll have a look at those.
