Allowing a C++ exception to propagate through D code is 
definitely possible.  Catching a C++ exception would require some 
knowledge of how that particular C++ runtime throws exceptions 
though.  Like I can see registering an exception handler for a 
C++ exception maybe somewhat similar to SEH, then prettying it up 
with syntactic sugar.  It seems tricky but doable, at least at a 
glance.
