Have string mixins been removed from the language reference? I can't seem to
find any mentioning of it at all, other than on the newsgroups and for some of
the phobos 2 modules.

In the latter case, it's pretty confusing for newcomers, as the library
documentation shows how something works by using a construct that haven't been
explained anywhere. It might also cause confusion over things like sort!("a <
b"), which can appear magical if you don't know about string mixins.

Great, thanks!

A bit of a shame that none of them can be find by seaching for string mixin,
though.

I find that search ends up being overshadowed by the NG posts, wish it could be
narrowed to just the specs and library.

But even then, if you search "mixinstring" or "mixin string" or "string 
mixin" those links don't show up.

I don't get results for statement, expression, or module.  But it does get 
the mixin page.

maybe that page should have the string mixin links in a "see also" section 
at the top (kinda like wikipidia).
