I can't agree more to this, Jacob...
Seriously people... "std.halffloat" ???
I'll agree too. HalfFloats are more a special case with certain circles
of programmers that need those. The majority of programmers (95%+) won't
care about half floats, nor would it be needed; It would be akin to
making std.bitop instad of core.bitop.
You could HalfFloats to std.math; Right next to cos, sin and tan.
std.mathspecial doesn't seem like it would be closely enough tied to
make it an option.
Alternatively make a std.customtypes for related misc types like this as
they are added to phobos.
std.typecons?
Seriously, std.type.cons, tuple, halffloat, bigint, etc...
