Though the feature seems useful, I worry about the asymmetry with

I agree, except I more and more think that scope classes were a mistake.
Structs with destructors are a much better solution, and wrapping a
class inside a struct would give it RAII semantics.
Scope class seems like a workaround in D1 because it doesn't got structs
with constructors and destructors. If scope classes are up for removal
shouldn't struct constructors be fixed to allow to do the same as class
constructors? For example, allow empty parameter lists.
