I use the net package. I would love to see something like 
string httpGet(string url, string[string] extraHeaders = null);
string httpPost(string url, void[] data, string[string] extraHeaders = null);

(and, possibly, functions/classes that these functions wrap around with more control)

Another thing was that it had more complete coverage of the Win32 API, but since I discovered the WindowsAPI[1] bindings package, that's hardly an issue.

I think that's about it. One thing I do love about Tango, though, is that they're much faster at fixing bugs than Phobos :D
