The documentation says that the interface files will only contain 
the parts of a module's source code that is required for linking, 
however I read somewhere that it pretty much does nothing but 
strip out the comments because it needs the full source code for 
a inlining, CTFE, and templates. So I'd have to manually modify 
or construct them manually, which means I'll lose some abilities, 
but that may be OK for some situations.

For classes and structs, I have no idea how to leave out the 
implementation details.
