Working on a library: request for code review

I can shed some light on my, beginners, point of view and the
rationale behind this tiny library.
I want to create a bar/matrix-code generator (QR, DataMatrix
etc.). I really like graphics-related subjects and I thought this
would be a good start in D.
Coming from Java island and having experience in Go I expected to
find some basic imaging functionalities in the standard library:
not necessary support for all image formats, but at least some
bitmap i/o and data model (Pixel, Image, Filter ...).
I found none of that :-(
IMHO (one of the) pain(s) of C++ is that the stdlib is far behind
what a modern developer would consider "elementary".
But I expected something from D, because Phobos is already more
than C++'s stdlib is: Phobos has e.g. digests. IMO digests are
not (as) necessary for a standard library as, say, a qsort is. So
if there are digests, why not imaging?
Either way, D is really nice and if I can help, I will :-) So far
- the TGA lib.
Best,
Mike
