So, to print or not to print?

Walter and I were talking this morning that there should be a high 
barrier of entry for one-liners in Phobos. The "print" function is 
technically a one-liner (i.e. writefln with the appropriate format 
string). On the other hand, it may be convivial enough to warrant 
inclusion, and saves us from embarrassing things such as producing 
meaningless output when numbers are printed together.

There's been a bit of churn in the PR comments regarding the utility of 
"print", and discussion diverged into other functions such as "dump" 
etc. Keeping it on topic: any strong cons and pros regarding the 
function? I want to either merge or close the PR and move on.


Thanks,

Andrei
