Kingsley is developing a D plugin for IntelliJ IDEA – which is a Good
Thing™.
However, as I have said before, I think CLion (a C++ IDE, where
IntelliJ IDEA is really a JVM languages IDE) would be a far better
place for D to be supported.
Given CLion is CMake based, CMake-D is important to getting things
moving initially. We can worry about Dub support and dependency
management along the way.
I have created an issue with the JetBrains tracker for this enhancement
request.

IntelliJ IDEA already supports Gradle as a project driver so the idea
of CLion allowing Dub to be a project driver is not outwith the bounds
of possibility.
It would be nice if we could develop plugins in Kotlin rather than
Java!
Intellij IDEA is the base IDE.
The branded ones like CLion are just it plus some propriety plugins.
But yes having them play nicely with each other is definitely preferable.
