I guess the first assignment of a variable should be considered as a

Yeah, and languages like C# solve these problems quite beautifully. I
don't think there's a reason we can't do almost the same thing in D,
except it requires implementation effort and overcoming Walter's
protests. Regardless, it's probably not something to expect in the
short-term.
How does C# solve it?
I was unable to leverage std.exception. collectException looks promising
at first glance - and maybe if the return value and out parameter were
switched, it would work - but then I suspect the function's
implementation would face exactly the same problem.
I must have missed part of this - how would the desired setup work?
