think that it's still quite ugly.
Those were since replaced with No.enumName and Yes.enumName by Dmitry's
idea:

Yes.X and No.X looks grammatically wrong. In D you usually have
'Aggregate.member', not 'Member.aggregate'.
Well, you can do only as much staying within the language.
Personally, I think the biggest stumbling block is error messages, maybe
we can do something about them.
Like make Flag struct with alias this and provide this(Flag!s)
constructor, opAssign etc. that static assert something sensible on
mismatch.
