As much as I prefer to write Haxe (and then compile it down to PHP), one of the [many] things that bugs me about Haxe is that it doesn't appear to do any of those checks automatically. Big missed opportunity there.
I've never really looked into haxe, but I agree, if it doesn't do those checks it's fairly useless - have you made a bug report? Your dreams could come true... Or you could forget and be forced to use D.. Dang!
I've been positively salivating at the idea of combining D, FastCGI and a D-ified rails-like framework. Haven't gotten around to it though. Fortunately, I did recently find out that the hosts I'm currently using allow custom-made CGI. Unfortunately, I can't use FastCGI on them, although I've been getting so fed up with PHP lately (both the PHP language and the PHP platform - Haxe only sheilds you from [parts of] the language, not the platform), that I think I can live perfectly happily without FastCGI.
I've been toying with the same idea, the framework I've been looking at porting uses a lot of runtime reflection though which I'm not sure is easy enough to do in D1. I've strayed away from D2 now after a couple of unsuccessful attempts at using it.
