Even better, with alias for embedded aliased-to-this structs
made working usefully, name management can be done before
embedding the features, by having another layer of embedding

OK, you have a point.
I realise syntax is the least important part of this proposal,
but "alias this" is the only alias that still is backwards...
If you do write a DIP at least consider this:
alias this : entity, render;
PS One could of course eat the cake and keep it still, at the
cost of additional complexity.
Distributed and prioritized:
alias this : a_prio1, a_prio2, a_prio3;
alias this : b_prio1, b_prio2;
any a* could clash with any b* but a:s wont clash with their
own kind since they are internally prioritised the same goes
for b:s.
Reasonable. I may eventually resort to this possibility, but
right now I am trying to force out the consequences of avoiding
this extra complexity. (And syntax, yes, noted.)
