I believe the following allow the runtime reflection wrapper. Though it changes the old semantics, the old one can be implemented on top of the new semantics

That's cool.

However, you have misunderstood how the opDot function name should be passed via templates.

The opDot signature should not take a type as the first argument, but a string. Otherwise, you have no compile-time abilities with the function name:

opDot(string methodname, T...)(T args)

instead of

opDot(U:immutable(char)[], T...)(U methodname, T args)

It's said there will be soon "static string" param.

I first proposed that about 3 years ago. I seriously don't believe it's going to happen any time soon. In fact, IIRC, Walter said that he'd found a problem with it. Maybe in D3.

I think the prototype might best be refined that time.

We need something that works in D2.
