Why is align() on structures not allowed within unit-test code blocks?

Is there a good reason why align() applied to structure definitions is not allowed on the struct definition line within unit-test code blocks? E.g.: unittest {      align(1) struct Foo {         charc;         int i;     }      void Bar() {           Foo f;
