Thoughts?
std.stream is on the chopping block and has been for years, and
it was decided at dconf that we'd actually get rid of it now
rather than just have it say in the documentation that it's
going away. As I understand it, the only reason that it wasn't
deprecated in 2.068 was because of some sort of issue with the
PR that forced it to be delayed. But there's no point in making
any improvements to it, because that code is not going to be
around for much longer.

Wow...this is surprising. At first glance, the streams seemed to
be fairly well done. What's the reason for them being removed?
and what is meant to be the replacement?
