Speaking of fancy pure. When will will the std lib actually start to use 
it ? I tried to use pure lately but as soon as i used phobos methods i 
hit a wall. e.g why is std.string.format not pure ? i did not look into 
it but in my pov it does not change any state and does just return a 
value depending on the given arguments.
