Yes I think so. Pretty much with everything, same with the new RTTI modifier
stuff in front of a declaration, instead after it. When I asked a question
about that, they were even surprised I doubted it at all. (worse, it was Bob
Swart!)

However due to the reaction of the audience (I went to a D2010 introduction
by Barnsten yesterday), specially from the younger crowd, the public opinion
seems to be this is absolutely great functionality.
