Does this mean that static inheritance for structs can be done
as syntax sugar using "alias this" with no semantic changes and
get the same semantics as with a class?
E.g.:
struct MySub : MySuper {
}
translates into
struct MySub {
MySuper __super;
this(...){ __super.__ctor; ...}
~this(...){ ...; __super.__dtor;}
alias __super this;
}
All I want from static inheritance is exactly what's made
possible by the `models` PR. I guess I'll write that DIP after
all.
