Think of it like this:
MyClass?.myProperty
It's a static field of the nullable MyClass type.
Just like:
MyStruct*.myProperty
It's a static field of the struct for which you have a pointer to. Exact
that for it to compile, you need to write:
(MyStruct*).myProperty
I propose we do things the same way for "?".
That's encouraging. I wasn't able to find any other ambiguous situations
(and the one I did find was very obscure); and it does seem (as you
pointed out) that ambiguities with a*b are far more common.
It would be an awesome feature IMHO. Null class references are by far
the most common bug I make in D. And despite what people have said,
working out why a class is null is not always easy, especially when it
only shows up rarely in production code.
