I think it's a bug that you can use a template this parameter
(this T) on a static member function without a direct compilation
error.

class Bar
{
static typeof(this) construct(A...)(A a)
{
return new typeof(this)(a);
}
}
Because it's exactly the same to write it as
static Bar construct(A...)(A a) { return new Bar(a); }
Of course this does not work. I don't know how to do it without
one line of boilerplate per class or without supplying the type
via template argument.
std.container.util : make takes the type to construct as an
argument, but std.container do not form a class hierarchy.
