Steven Schveighoffer:
It's very unlikely this will make it into the language. Alloca should be good enough for this, it's not a very common usage, and supporting it is not easy.
alloca is bug-prone and unsafe, and if you want to create a 2D array on the stack it's not good enough. They are uncommonly used because they are not supported by the D compiler, and it doesn't track the memory ownership well enough. But a well designed system language needs to push programmers to use the stack as much as possible.
