It's architecture is what makes it so beautiful. You can
configure your own graphics pipeline simply by passing the
right template arguments. It would be an excellent showcase
for D.

Thankfully we already have it:

Data structures separated from algorithms with lazy range-like
computations.
It's just a matter of using it and improving on it.
