Luckily I haven't used Windows for about 10 years now =)

It's really a shame that D will take the stupidity route.

PS: I don't know how windows work, but if calling the Windows API is
    like going into kernel mode, and you can mess other processes, it
    seems reasonable to do check every API call as if it were user
    input, but if you're confined to your process, is really stupid.
