One other thing - according to the bug report discussion, the 
proposed solution was pre-approved both by Andrei Alexandrescu 
and by *YOU*.

Proposing a solution, letting various people work on implementing 
it for three years, and then suddenly announcing that you "oppose 
this change" and calling the solution a "mess" with no 
explanation is a fantastic way to destroy all motivation for 
outside contributors.
