So far, I haven't tackled that because I expect too many false 
classifications. Please note that "to" is colorized as a type in 
"to!string" by Mono-D.

So far, highlighting is only using information from the lexer, more 
details need semantic analysis. Visual D and Mono-D share the same 
semantic engine, though, so a similar result should be possible.

I guess that this should be an option, I'll put it on my todo list.
