[Visual D] Certain templates such as std.container.array.Array do not show suggestions/autocompletions when in different scope to where it was instantiated. #198

Different scope (passed as function parameter):

This can also be very easily replicated in an empty, clean module - no suggestions appear when accessing a template instantiated item in a different scope:

This can also be replicated by trying to access a module level variable from a method:
