from some keayboard layout is faster to write … than ...

The idea of using unicode glyphs in source code is interesting, and I think the
now dead Fortress shows it's useful if done well. But introducing such change
in D, and requiring a smart editor, just for a single symbol is a bit too much
for too much little.

I agree with bearophile. While D is a fully unicode language, the rest of the
programming ecosystem is not there yet, and it would just be grief to make such
changes now.

Maybe in 10 years.
