Oh, I didn't mean to imply that I wouldn't love to have it in D (assuming it was all well-fleshed out and didn't have big problems). I just wanted to be crystal clear that I'm merely discussing a langauge design idea here rather than coming in saying "Hey, you people should all like this idea and go implement it put it into D!!!" It's easy for things to get taken that way here, and can result in knee-jerk reactions and otherwise derailing of what's really only intended as a theoretical academic discussion. If something *were* to come of it, and it worked great, and everybody was happy, then fantastic. That's just not what I'm bringing it up for, that's all.
I especially wanted to avoid any the "How dare you even consider speaking of something without fully implementing it first!" that tends to be common here. (Speaking of, *that* sort of thing is far more unprofessional than the mere "bad words" some people are so terrified of).
