But reverse-engineering Objective-C classes knowing only the name of 
classes and their methods is so much fun! How can people not be 
interested in running Xcode inside the debugger to follow what calls 
what? Then all you have to do is inject some code at the right place to 
subvert the IDE into compiling your D code, tracking D module 
dependencies, and suggesting completions as you type. Piece of cake!
