That's quite nice.

Just FYI:
"referencing of symbols between the languages/projects" definitely 
doesn't work at all.
The rest, "Automatic linking between sibling libs within a solution", " 
automatic rebuild dependencies between sibling projects", etc., that 
won't work out of the box, but can be made to work if you go configure 
Eclipse options, and build system configuration. Requires some work, it 
won't be seamless.

I'm gonna me straight up with you about DDT: With work, probably a lot 
could could be achieved in terms of CDT C/C++ integration. But, 
personally, I became interested in the D world to completely escape the 
C/C++ one. I don't use C/C++ professionally or on a hobby basis. That 
means doing CDT integration (other than trivial stuff) is low priority 
for me - even though I fully agree that better D and C/C++ toolchain 
integration is very important for D's success, if not vital.
And "low priority", given all the stuff I have planned in the DDT 
(&siblings) roadmap, effectively means: "not gonna get done". Unless 
someone else wants to work on that (that would be welcome of course).
