You know, this is like the first thing C++ users complain about on the IRC channel when they find D: "what if I want to turn a class into a struct, or vice versa?" I've been using D for five years, and I have never. EVER. Needed or desired to do that. Nor have I heard anyone but new C++ users complaining about it. Classes and structs are fundamentally different concepts. You design your code from the start to use one or the other, because only one makes sense.
