I like using D's nested functions for simplifying code in the same kind of way.
Sometimes a tiny helper function can make a big difference.
I've also found that nested functions can nicely fix spaghetti code.
Please wait around a year after the last major breaking api change.
Its the kind of library that will be severely limited by Phobos
requirements. After all by your own post, the API still needs a lot of
work done to it and this way it can mature up nicely.
