this problem has very easy solition: we should stop calling class dtors "destructors", and rename them to "finalizers".
Absolutely. So many people coming from C++ see "destructor" and want to use them as they did in C++. How often do we see people coming on here wondering why they can't get deterministic destruction out of class destructors? Of course, it's too late to change anything now, but we need a big, obvious link from the docs and the wiki and anywhere else people can read about destructors to a page that explains how D class destructors are not C++ class destructors.
