digitalmars.D - final forbidden with value template parameters?

Hi

module main;
class Foo(string s) {}
final class Bar(string s) {} // Error

The compiler says:
variable main.s final cannot be applied to variable

Why is this forbidden?

It might be related to this: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1481 But without a full example - where you're instantiating the template - I can't say for sure.

That's full example. No need to instantiate this template to get an error. It is a bug and I was hit by this multiple times already :(
