this would also be nice for beginners as you could do just "dlang 
help" and you would get an overview over what tools are actually 
available.

aproposez the term dlang : it would be nice if people would use 
this more consistently so that google picks it up. i still often 
get "autoswitched" to the golang term.
One could even go further and engineer this (some people would 
call it SEO ;) )  by embedding it somewhere where everybody needs 
to use it (ideas: rename dub.json to dub.dlang, accept .dlang as 
file ending, embed it somehow into the documentation system, 
alias std. with dlang. etc ).
