Ideas:
- Put background shading/box around highlighted {}. To make open/close 
be more prominent.
- For pointers, have the type highlighted one level darker then the *. 
So e.g. type** would be [[[type]*]*] where [] indicate shading level 
when the last * is highlighted over.
* Make source file close have a button. Its not obvious enough to use 
the keyboard shortcut. I accidentally closed the widget thinking I was 
going bye bye to the file.

Bugs:
* Message widget was very temperamental to the point of erroring out 
when resizing (as it took up the entire middle area).
* When e.g. source code widget is external to main window it will open 
in the most minimalistic form if the main window gets minimized and 
reopened.
* __gshared, @nogc, @property not highlighted.

Atleast for me, without dub support I can't use it. Although if 
debugging support existed on Windows that would be a massive plus.

Oh and if compiler cannot be found, make it a LOT easier to configure 
it. As in I have compiler e.g. dmd here. Now use it.

One thing, perhaps for atleast Windows, support e.g. ldc out of the box. 
As a seperate no install package.
