They aren't really splitting their efforts, there isn't much to 
implement as they all use the same backend tools that provides 
all the functionality. It' just the small amount of code to 
integrate it. People do what they do cause they want to. I would 
hate the fact if everyone just got up and only developed a 
Intellij plugin. I don't like those IDEs, they tend to be slow 
and bloated.

Have you even tried Mono D or Visual D? They have decent 
debugging support. Just cause there isn't an Intellij plugin 
doesn't mean there aren't decent IDEs.
