You can use std.stream. There is no candidate to replace it. Even 
if tomorrow someone comes with one, it has to be reviewed, 
accepted in std.experimental and after a while it would totally 
replace the old one.
I think it's safe to say that std.stream will exist for at least 
2 years in its current shape.
