Description Jonathan M Davis 2011-07-29 16:06:51 UTC 
On http://www.d-programming-language.org/property.html, this note is not exactly correct:
 
"Note: Prop­er­ties cur­rently can­not be the lvalue of an op=, ++, or -- op­er­a­tor."

If the properties return ref, then op=, ++, and -- should work. AFAIK, the note is correct for non-ref properties though.
