It's good to see that this thing from about half a year ago 
finally seen some traction. Thank you for your work. But then 
again, reading other threads (such as this one 
https://forum.dlang.org/thread/lktxmzdcmaagtrswpily@forum.dlang.org) leaves me with about 0 hope that any of this is going to be taken into account. Was this brought up anywhere internally? Was there any discussion? What are the results of the discussion?

Having a list is good, but I'm afraid this will die as a list.
