Not disagreeing at all, and not trying to twist anyone's arm, but 
speaking purely personally, I'd love to see WebAsm/Asm.js support 
(FWLIW). I'm converting an old Flash-based thing to Unity3D/WebGL right 
now (still web-based due to factors beyond my control), and (for various 
reasons) I'd love to sometime build a nice 2D engine in D and use it to 
move this project to D. Unfortunately, I've checked into GCC and LLVM 
docs before and GCC/LLVM hacking seems to be beyond me.

I'm not making any particular point there. Just chatting, fwiw.
