Maybe it should provide full computed broken form instead of 
separate components?

auto d=dur.breakUp;
d.hours; d.minutes; d.seconds;

In some glorious future where we can destructure tuples, you 
could do something like this:

(hours, minutes, seconds) = dur.parts;

Assuming hours, minutes and seconds are already declared, you can 
do this already

TypeTuple!(hours, minutes, seconds) = dur.parts;

A full working example of the syntax:


import std.typetuple;
import std.typecons;
import std.stdio;

void main()
{
        int a,b;
        TypeTuple!(a, b) = tuple(5, 8);
        assert(a == 5 && b == 8);
}
