Adding a qualifier here and there does not count as serious.
But, to put this statement in the context of my other post, it
further raises the bar which the arguments in favor of having
extern(C++) introduce D-side scopes have to clear. If we had
extern(C++, "ns") just affect the mangling, the need for adding
extra qualifiers wouldn't exist in the first place.
