Thoughts on this sort of feature?

Love your name, Jerry ;)

Maybe something like this psuedo code:

struct Condition(T) {
    Condition(T val, bool cond) { m_val = val; m_cond = cond; }
    bool opCast(T)() if(is(T == bool)) {
        return m_cond;
    }

    alias m_val this;

private:
    T m_val;
    bool m_cond;
}

auto cond(T v, bool cond) {
    return Condition!T(v, cond);
}


Usage:

int v = 5;
if(v = cond(v, v > 4) {
    writeln("Happy coding");
}



Just notice I am not proud of that T.init.
