I think it would be ideal if the dmd front end were more isolated from

Case in point -- today I got bitten by this issue:

AFAICT it's fixed in 2.061, and it certainly doesn't show up when compiling with latest-git dmd. But as 2.061 isn't yet merged into ldc or gdc, both of these compilers are temporarily out of commission ...

But I believe Walter has already said that patches to this effect are
welcome, so I can only see the situation improve in the future.

Yes, my impression too, and I know that some people have been putting work towards it.
