D has native functional purity. Couldn't you get the same

I suspect that CTFE can accomplish most of that today - with the exception
that CTFE will not allocate runtime memory for you.
There is ER somewhere in bugzilla AFAIR about allowing CTFE-only struct default
constructors.
Note that you can do (as pointed out upthread):
struct S {
int x = 7;
string s = "hello";
}
which then has default initialization. Of course, CTFE will work on those
rvalues.
