is there a trait in D or Phobos which will tell you if a type can be used as a key for an associative array? For example, where T is some type:

    static assert(isKeyType!T)
    int[T] hashTable = ...

import std.stdio;

enum isKeyType(T) = __traits(compiles, int[T]);

class Foo {}
struct Bar {}

void main(string[] args)
{
        // Success
        assert(isKeyType!(int));
        assert(isKeyType!(string));
        assert(isKeyType!(Foo));
        assert(isKeyType!(Bar));

        // Fail
        assert(isKeyType!(void));
        assert(isKeyType!(delegate(){}));
        assert(isKeyType!(function(){}));
