Agreed, not manually, as it is exponential in the number of
conditions.
Image using frameworks which conveniently allow adding features
to a struct...
struct Beholder
{
mixin Entity!Movable;
mixin Render!"Beholder.png";
}
... then you couldn't even solve it manually without rewriting
the framework.
With distributed 'alias this' you could seamlessly combine any
number of frameworks from different vendors.
