My Idea is to remove unnecessary bracket encapsulation made

It will works like this :

does it make sense to add a function to do that?
as it stands there are 2 separate ways, cast(void*)Thread.getThis and
cast(void*)getTid, so having a function would make it the preferred way.

For what it's worth, you can also do:

The synchronized block will call lock on enter and unlock on
exit, even as a result of a throw.
