There's no head const in D, but you can emulate it. This is a

Thanks for that link. Yes, that is close. I'd even feel reasonaly
well about it if it was in phobos so everybody can use the
mechanism consistently.
It does not however, quite meet the mark of "with ease". But it
is possibly an acceptable hack around a shortcoming in the
language. Comming from C++, it's not as though I'm not used to
those. Just a shame to have to resort to it when D is so pretty
close to getting rid of dirty hacks more or less completely.
Cheers,
