digitalmars.D.learn - vibe.d Serialize/Deserialize SumType to/from json

D offers `SumType` struct to manage tagged Union types. But there is no support for managing it's Json serialization/deserialization (using vibe.d) Is it a way to add `fromRepresentation` and `toRepresentation` to `SumType` (or a way for creating a custom struct "inheriting" SumType with serialization capabilities)? Thank you for advanced.
