I wonder why Microsoft never tinkered with D for this purpose. 
Was it the garbage collector that made them avoid D after all 
these years? However Rust comes along and Microsoft is suddenly 
interested.

I'm interested what Microsoft does with Verona. In general 
Microsoft are good at creating more ergonomic languages. Rust is 
sometimes a bit clunky to use at some points and the question if 
Microsoft can make a more user friendly language than Rust.
