I have yet to find such an IDE on windows, I use poseidon for its simple 
project manager and syntax highlighting (I had to add the latest D2 
keywords manually), but it has no semantics analysis and the ddbg 
support is half broken so I debug with windbg, however its very light 
and very fast.

I hear Descent for Eclipse is getting support for D2 so you might want 
to start looking there, it does semantics analysis but Eclipse is too 
heavy an IDE for my tastes. I can't tell if it has jump to definition.
