I'm mostly interrested in directx 11 and d3d11 shader compiler bindings.
I don't really need any other part of the directx api (maybe xaudio2 in 
the future, currently I'm using OpenAL for sound)

I already have my own math classes implemented in D so I don't really 
need DirectXMath. Also D compilers will not be able to inline stuff that 
comes in from C++. D's SIMD intrinsics (core.simd) are unusable at the 
momemnt, so I would avoid them. The simd intrinsics of LDC and GDC work 
however (__builtin_x stuff).
