This was a question asked in IRC, someone wanting a way to have the parent

name outputted for logging purposes. Just like there is __LINE__ and __FILE__
for
access to the line number and filename, would be handy (and trivial to
implement)
if there was a __FUNCTION__ variable also for outputting the bare name of the
function. Optionally could also add a __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ too for outputting the
type signature of the function.
ie:
writeln(__FUNCTION__); // foo
writeln(__PRETTY_FUNCTION__); // int foo(string)

Yah, we need such. To help with generic code, I'm hoping for:
function.stringof
module.stringof
class.stringof
struct.stringof
union.stringof
enum.stringof
to yield the name of the current entity.
