Promotion of std.logger has been officially stalled until 
reference counted strings are part of D. I think this was done 
because the current code uses the GC a lot; not sure.

RC strings were being pushed heavily by Walter and Andrei until 
it was realized that in order for it to be @safe, there had to be 
a lot of holes in @safe plugged and new additions to the compiler.

Walter is still periodically working on @safe, but I'd say RC 
strings landing in master is two years away minimum.
