implements a rule defined in TDPL: synchronized classes shall
have no public members.
The motivation behind this limitation is that member accesses
in synchronized objects should not occur without some handshake
occurring. Public members would make that possible and easy.
Walter and I are on board with this change. However, it is a
breaking change so we want to gather a level of community
support before we push the button.
Thanks,

While we're talking about this, what about this:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/Module_access_to_private_members_of_synchronized_classes_228775.html
In the TDPL, on page 419:
"Not so for synchronized classes, which obey the following
rules:
- Access to private members is restricted to methods of the
class."
I could rework commits from my experimental branch and submit a
PR?
