But what bothers me the most...
Something else that rubs me the wrong way is that DIP 1000 is
currently in a status of `DRAFT`:
https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md
What the heck is going on here? We're adding features to the
compiler and modifying Phobos in production releases based on a
`DRAFT` proposal?
No, it's behind a flag, so you can't really say that we're
shipping it as "production ready release".
In fact I think we should have a hell of a lot more of such
experimental flags.
This would allow us to be able to merge things quickly, and gain
real-world feedback and testing on complicated matters instead of
PRs stalling to death in the queue.
For reference, Rust has currently 148 opt-in experimental
language features:
