Isn't it about time for D3?

100% OK about the optional garbage collector, but I have to 
totally disagree with you on the "final by default" approach.

The current design keeps the code open to extension, in a 
perfectly complementary way to UFCS.

They are both incredibly useful, and are part of what makes D2 
perfectly work as a strongly-typed JavaScript-like scripting 
language.

(I just had another proof of that this morning, see my recent 
post.)

And dropping C++ compatibility is a complete non-sense IMHO.

If you want more people using D, its interoperability with C and 
C++ should instead be improved, so that D applications can 
quickly and easily use any C/C++ 3D/2D/VR/audio multimedia 
libraries for instance...
