No, they're not. Maybe you're misleaded by the fact that most of 
them use semantic versioning.

All of them have completion and such IDE-grade features.

I think that you might invent an excuse here...but I won't 
develop further because it could be interpreted as a personnal 
attack. :)

There are not so much specialized tools: DUB, DCD, Dscanner, 
Dfmt, Digger and they are not only solo projects. There are more 
GUIs and they are more sparse so here you're a bit right but all 
of them use the same tools ;)

Lol, start your solo project then or get involved in the one that 
exists now.

My own experience is that I can use a particular D IDE during 
many hours (for me it's coedit) and I forget about the IDE 
existence itself, which is a good thing.

Sometimes however there's small problems and I have to restart a 
session but I've experienced the same with others, more mature, 
OSS or commercial, older than 15 years, IDEs.
