The D AST is not really suitable as it stands.
D is a bit like C++ in this regard, there might be a minimal
core language that could be distilled from it, but it would take
a D3 full breaking change to get there, so it won't happen.
Well, I think D without templates is already a lightweight core
language. The real cost comes with the template language.
But I think providing an external ast tree mapped onto the
changing internal one used by DMD would be a feasible approach.
