Ok, THIS is seriously cool, if I had this today for D it would make my  
life about 10 times simpler. Interoperation with D and .NET is currently  
only possible via either PInvoke (but no objects) or via COM which is  
clunky and not cross-platform. This would solve that. And like with this  
tool it could be done by feeding a tool the proper .DI files. Definitely  
something worthy of investigation.
