Asking for feature names is a very bad choice, you're essentially excluding all beginners and it's almost impossible to google the answers (you want to exclude lazy uninterested humans, not all of them, right?).

The answers not being Google-able is a goal. The Wiki CAPTCHA was easily defeated when a spammer Googled the answer.

For example, apparently calling the following a "raw string" or "raw string literal" is faux pas in the D language.

There are many acceptable answers for that question.

As for math/algorithms, this one feels too advanced:
return iota(9).reduce!"a+b";

I could add links to DPaste and the #d IRC channel.

tl;dr: waaaaaaaaaaay too difficult

Well, pull requests are welcome. However, I should add that the rate of false positives for spam detection is extremely low. Yesterday, four valid posting attempts were challenged with a CAPTCHA, and all were caused by StopForumSpam not understanding the IP address, which has now been fixed.
