Something else that rubs me the wrong way is that DIP 1000 is 
currently in a status of `DRAFT`:  
https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/blob/master/DIPs/README.md

What the heck is going on here?  We're adding features to the 
compiler and modifying Phobos in production releases based on a 
`DRAFT` proposal?

Furthermore, I find it hypocritical that some of us are put 
through a disproportionately burdensome DIP process requiring 
thorough documentation, multiple peer reviews, excessive delays, 
and judgement that defaults to "no" for some of the most minute 
changes to the language, but a game-changing feature like DIP 
1000 can just be amended on a whim.
