Still adding D features, I see!

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, so when is 
destructuring coming to D?

Also, the `if (init; condition) and switch (init; condition)` 
seems like a very nice idea.

It's from Go,  I don't see much value in it. You can just wrap 
the if in a block:

{
  init;
  if(condition)…
}

That is usually more readable IMO.
I forgot. No it's not more readable, to the contrary. The issue 
is that normally { } introduces an indentation, which is always 
associated with some kind of branching. Adding an indentation 
just for the declaration of a variable is an inconsistency 
annoying to read. I had the case several times in the code I was 
transforming and it had me each time puzzled at where the loop or 
condition was.
