Ideally it would.
Is C++ interop really that important or is it another one of
those "if D had this, *then* I would use it!" dismissals. C
interop is clearly crucial. Operating system interfaces are
written in C, and not being able to call C functions is hugely
limiting. But C++? I honestly can't envision a situation where
I would actually care about C++ interop. Is this truly a blocker
for some people? Like an actual, honest blocker and not just a
false flag?
