These are exactly the things that enable us to bring a very large 
code base to D. Not just faster or better, it makes the 
difference between impossible and possible. And we are engineers 
needing to solve real-world problems, not CS nerds that find 
these features merely interesting from a theoretical perspective. 
Stay tuned for an announcement...
