D has associative arrays, which can behave like any Java Map. And it has 
dynmic arrays, so you get lists. Arrays are in d, and strings also. So 
what's the problem?

BTW, I also think phobos should come with an extensive library of 
classes and functions, just like Java and .Net have (and I think this, 
and a "decent" IDE, is what make people use them), but not forcing the 
user to statically link all of it to the code.
