Makes me want to laugh every time we discuss "problems" of D.
Bugs are

I agree it's a hole in the module system, but it's not quite
something that prevents work from being done.
And couple more from the miserable line of basic encapsulation
not working:

These seem in the same category. Not to say they aren't

Yeah. They do make it much easier to break other code when you
make changes (including making changes in something like Phobos),
but mostly, they don't prevent work getting done. They are pretty
