D - [Q] Access to "initial" values in contracts?

Hi,

I've been doing a bit of reading on contracts (btw, Walter, a couple of the
links at the end of the "Contracts" section of the D docs seem to be broken)
and it appears that Eiffel and Sather both allow the programmer to access
the "initial" values of variables, i.e. their values before entry into a
routine. Is this sort of caching now done, or planned for D?

Thanks,

Rob

I've thought about it, I think it's a better way to go, but I haven't implemented it yet.
