Libraries that include an OpenGL wrapper are incredibly common in 
the D landscape. Everyone likes to make their own, why not.
http://code.dlang.org/packages/

Here is a list in alphabetical order:
anchovy
batch-engine
dash
DGame
GFM (my own, PLEASE, PLEASE CHOOSE ME)
GLamour + gl3n
graphite
three.d
...and probably many others.

 From your library choices, it seems 
https://github.com/vova616/BatchEngine and 
https://github.com/Zoadian/three.d should be pretty close to what 
you want.
