Has anyone tried making a QtCreator plugin for D and what is your experience?

As an avid C++ programmer I preferably work in QtCreator, though 
my heart really tends toward D, for which I usually just use 
plain old vim.

With the new version, they seem to improve on the LSP which they 
introduced in the current version of 4.8. Has anyone tried it 
yet? I would switch in a beat if it has full D support.
