Assuming that f() returns a tuple,
auto {x,y,z} = f();
will be the same as
auto t = f();
auto x = get<1>(t);
auto y = get<2>(t);
auto z = get<3>(t);

I feel like some of the competitive advantage of D is falling
away from us with some of the recent C++ developments like this
this. Stackless resumable functions is another thing that comes
to mind. As does the Core Guidelines Support Library/static
analysis pair (though I suspect it'll never be quite as foolproof
as Safe D).
We can't even do the equivalent of std::tie[1] in D as a
workaround for tuple expansion because there are no ref typed
Tuples (unless something changed from when I last looked).
