So, what I ideally want to do isn't actually a scripting

The end user thinks it is a script, it works the same way, they
write a little program and load it up, but the application
actually compiles it as D into an independent exe and spins it
up as a new process, communication over a pipe and/or shared
memory or something. The user script can then crash
independently! And they can use the whole D language. The whole
interface of interop can be automatically generated.
Of course, the problem with the build thing is the program you
write might need to be distributed with a D compiler.... though
I don't think that's a dealbreaker, D compilers aren't that big
and could be downloaded on demand by your program. (Well, dmd
isn't, ldc/gdc is 10x bigger.)
Could we build on this:
