we should deprecate `void fun(this a)` (instead: void fun(typeof(this)a)) ; likewise, we should deprecate `var.init` (instead: typeof(var).init) more controversial: we may also want to deprecate `instance.static_methor();` it's confusing and lax, and leads to behavior that confuses some users, see [The daily D riddle]: https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg230090.html

`this a` is an error now, however, the init on the variable still works.
