It is instead more specific: "The aim is to boost the production of fundamental 
tools for analysis of D source code in D: lexical, syntactic, at best first 
steps of semantic analysis; producing code representations as D data structures."

Its usefulness /in the long term/ can be said more general in that it would 
enable *further* creation of D tools in D (*), potentially useful to all D 
programmers. Unlike eg a general-purpose parsing lib in D which is specific to 
the parsing domain; on the other hand, a general-purpose parsing lib does not 
parse only D code ;-).
