Kenji Hara:
If you need to use fully qualified name, you can use normal
function call syntax.
auto a = std.path.join("", "\n");
I'm sure Timothee is aware of your solution, but it breaks UFCS
chains or doesn't allow them.
So if you want to write:
foo.bar.baz.spam.red;
But you have to fully qualify baz, currently you have to write:
spam(std.somemodule.baz(foo.bar)).red;
Or more naturally:
auto aux = std.somemodule.baz(foo.bar);
aux.spam.red;
With Timothee idea you write something like:
foo.bar.(std.somemodule.baz).spam.red;
This looks like a small improvement.
(Elsewhere I have even suggested to optionally use typeof and
assert with a dot-leading syntax, like sizeof).
