FYI, on Android there *is* a C API in the NDK that you can use to
interface with the OS. IIRC Java/JNI is not strictly necessary, though
it's certainly more convenient since a large number of built-in
resources are only accessible to Java (esp. the various GUI components).

I chose the mixed Java/D route mainly so that I can just leverage off
the Java stuff that's already built-in, instead of homebrewing
everything from scratch in D.
