If you like:

         extern (C++,ns) {

         }

The whole point of scoped names is to be able to do this.


The whole point is meant to be linking to C++ symbols inside namespaces. 
 Nobody wants conflicting symbols in a module, and nobody wants to cram 
all of their C++ namespace bindings inside a single D source file to 
avoid getting namespace symbol conflicts.
