What's the reasoning for allowing this?

100 % agree that there should be non-nullable class 
references, they're my main missing feature in D. Likewise, 
I'm astonished that only few D users wish for them.

"But I don't like the verbosity!"

alias MyClass = NotNullable!MyClassImpl;

Huh neat, though it would nice to allow conversion of Nullable to 
NotNullable via runtime conditional checking.

NotNullable!MyClassImpl = (MyClassImpvar != Null) ? MyClassImpvar 
: new MyClassImpvar();
