You should probably start to think about the real reason behind 
all this.
The thing you complain about is DMD being flexible, like any 
other compiler is too.

Try blundering around with the 'include' folder of your favorite 
C compiler,
but don't blame me if nothing works any any more, because your 
compiler uses that directory as-is as its include directory and 
does not have an internal whitelist of the files to expect there.

The next question is, would like DMD to require a whitelist for 
every single include directory, which means forcing each dev to 
write or generate a file list of his library directories?
