It's best viewed as a compatibility or micro-optimization 
feature. For structuring code, D obsoletes goto with nested 
functions, scope statements and labelled break and continue.

Most experienced D programmers use scope statements and labelled 
break/continue to replace goto with great effect, but sometimes 
the same programmers can still be seen using goto when a nested 
function would really have solved the issue more structurally, so 
I recommend experimenting with nested functions if they are 
unfamiliar to you.
