Seems odd to me. I thought the unpopular bit was the lack of
lvalue-ness and how "array.length++;" did not work. No idiot would
write "writefln = 42;" in serious code. It's easy to avoid since you
have be rather intentional about it.
Oh, yes. That needs fixing too!
It seems to be fixed in D2.031:
writefln = 42;
Error: writefln is not an lvalue
Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (42) of type int to void
Same goes with writeln.
