It'll probably be dropped for the next big feature before being 
finished, just like everything else in D. Nothing is ever 
completed or workable. Only ever a subset works.

Not to be pessimistic but there's literally no ground-breaking 
feature in D that has been finished yet.

Everything is only finished half-way through and doesn't work 
properly - referring to nogc, safe, shared, betterC, the many 
phobos modules under experimental.

D has this mentality that it's better to start something new and 
exciting, than fixing up/finishing what we have.

So yeah, never wait for something to be completed in D, always 
expect what you have now is what you have in a couple of years, 
except for that you can be guaranteed a tons of new half-finished 
features will be added along with a handful of new attributes 
that nobody really understands.
