D - [experts] private typedef

Currently this is possible:

class C{
  private typedef int myint;

and in another module:

import ...;
void main(){
  C.myint a;       // no error here
  C foo;
  //typeof(foo).myint b; // error .property not implemented for typeof
}

Obviously the private attribute is not followed.

Should types be attributed at all?
If not attributed, what are they: public or private?
Is it an error for `typeof' to not beeing able to yield the `myint' type?

So long.

Yes.

If it was public, yes.
