Unit testing requiring the program to be run was completely unexpected.  I think that the unit testing in the source code feature is one of the best things about D, but also probably the feature that is lacking most for a better implementation.

I agree too.  I was baffled when I first started getting linker errors 
trying to run unittests on some source code that lacked a main().
