Well, native implementations are useful at least for building
self-contained applications. Also, one can learn more advanced
features of the language studying them.
On the other hand, while for example C has a low overhead, I
believe a properly optimized implementation in D could match and
perhaps even surpass C code in terms of performance and safety,
so at least for me, if someone has the knowledge and time to
reimplement mature libraries in D, kudos to him/her, as a mere
ignorant mortal I will certainly appreciate the effort. ;)
