 When will the op= be implemented on a get/set property, e.g 
 array.length+=1;

It's difficult because the compiler would have to be able to match up the 
getters and setters for a given property, which, given D's rather 
"interesting" method of declaring properties and also because of possible 
implicit conversions, it might be a very difficult thing to do.
