Doesn't solve the compile-time only problem though :(
The only solution I can think of is something with `variant`s,
but it'll be messy.
Well, the fundamental issue is that in a language like D that
compiles to machine code, variable n

Hi
Suppose string variable strVar has value "fooVar".
fooVar is a valid variable name used elsewhere in the program.
How does one obtain from strVar:
1. The type of fooVar;
2. The value of fooVar?
