No semicolon there, please.
Why would I not terminate a declaration with a semi-colon?
Why should a declaration not end in a semi-colon just because
the last token is a brace?
Why should I not tell the lexer precisely where my declaration

around it not interfering?
Why must every thread in this forum contain more posts
regarding some irrelevant tangent than posts responding to the
original topic?
That would be like putting a semicolon after a while or if block
or after defining a delegate inside an argument list.
I think it's a bug that dmd doesn't show a warning for
unnecessary semicolons outside of function blocks, because inside
of them it also shows a warning.
Also it's not D-style to put a semicolon there and it's also
never specified in the grammar spec. It's just treated as
separate empty statement.
