Exactly! And I've been repeating this for some years now; I think D's
biggest 'issue' today is the environment.
The language can always be improved, but I think it's a bigger issue
that the tooling is, in my experience, the primary detail that
inhibits adoption.

How can we stimulate this area of development?
Companies will pay money for tooling, if it works! ;)

Do we have any vector's into Microsoft to get fixes for D'd debugging
experience into their debugger? Are there any sympathetic developers
at MS?
