Just a little point :
I find some much examples not tested on Internet, so to me examples have to by played by the compiler in the same time as unittest. Maybe it must have a new keyword?

But that true unittest doesn't have exactly the same purpose and some risk to be hard to read for a beginner.

That is a good point. Ideally when building a library all the 'examples' in the documentation should be built too to make sure they are still valid. Example code should be marked as such, extracted and run through the compiler with each new release. I seem to recall reading in places that some D resources (Ali's book perhaps) do this with their source code.

As things stand that would be a mark in favor of unittests.
