Absolutely. So many people coming from C++ see "destructor" and want to 
use them as they did in C++. How often do we see people coming on here 
wondering why they can't get deterministic destruction out of class 
destructors? Of course, it's too late to change anything now, but we 
need a big, obvious link from the docs and the wiki and anywhere else 
people can read about destructors to a page that explains how D class 
destructors are not C++ class destructors.
