You can do that now. Use the badly named and rather
undocumented "betterC" switch and you can build D apps that
don't need phobos at all - they can be linked with the C
runtime library only.
I use it to bring D up on a new target.
Wow, I have never known something like that exists! Is there
description of what it actually does or source code is only
possible reference. Depending on actual limitations, it may be a
game changer.
