Does that actually work in D2? I thought it was a D1-only thing.

The TL;DR here is that I'm concerned about having a solution

allows them to be stack-allocated, (ii) ensures that their

allows them to work effectively with (input) range semantics.


Isn't it what a scoped class is supposed to provide?

class Rnd {}

void foo() {
  scope rnd  = new Rnd; // reference semantic and stack allocated
