I've been looking at ways to optimize the D lexer's operation using

I still thing we should use it more like `std.staging` - once your
updates are ready, go through review/voting and keep module in
`std.experimental` for at least one DMD release before adding to
Phobos core.
This also means relaxing API requirements a lot for initial inclusion.
I am more for "stdx", which is what some developers already use as
package name for experimental stuff.
The way I see it is instead of explaining "stdx stands for the
experimental part of std" I'd rather use std.experimental which explains
itself.
We added "immutable" after having explained to a million people
"invariant in this context means immutable".
