getopt is a 1970s C solution to the problem of command line parsing.
Most programming languages have moved on from getopt and created
language-idiomatic solutions to the problem. Indeed there are other,
better solution in C now as well.

D should have one (or more maybe) D idiomatic command line processing
libraries *NOT* called getopt.
