Not disagreeing, but you had mentioned nullable types before,

was wondering what they might look like also. Have you made an
enhancement for these I could examine?
I opened this:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4571
Part of the syntax is:
T? means T nullable
T@ = means not nullable.
But that ER is a confused mess, and in the meantime the
@disable was
introduced. Now the probability of such nullable
syntax+semantics to be
introduced in D is very low, so probably I will close down
that ER.

I think it's safe to close it. Nullable types have not enjoyed
a lot of appreciation in C#.

In C#, all objects are already nullables, which make it not
really useful.
In D, this is implementable as a lib anyway.
