A good point. I don't know whether that's enough to make it a bad idea or not.
If you're worried about endianness though, the functions in std.bitmanip (e.g.
bigEndianToNative and nativeToBigEndian) already take care of it for you, since
they put non-native in static ubyte arrays of the appropriate type (the
conversion is dealt with internally in a union). So, maybe that in of itself
effectively solves the problem.
