If I understand that, it's similar to allowing D code like this:
bool foo(out int x) {
x = 10;
return true;
}
void main() {
if (foo(int y))
y.writeln;
}
Currently in D you have to write:
void main() {
int y;
if (foo(y))
y.writeln;
}

Another intesting thing for D community to know is that it will
gain a new JIT.

And besides Windows Phone 8, the additional option to generate
native code for other targets as well was briefly mentioned
during the VS 2013 keynote as you can see from the comments.
