...Did you even read the arguments in the dip? This has been
discuss quite a lot in the forums, it even gives you links to
them.
Well, I read the DIP and the whole forum discussion back in the
day, and again I think this will create more harm than benefits
the way it was proposed.

I do not accept gut feeling as a valid objection here. The
current workarounds is shown to be painful as shown in the dip
and in the discussions that it currently link. That *the*
motivation here.
I am familiar with the author here, he is very involved with the
C++<->D compatibility side of things. He knows the pain from
first hand experience.
