It probably can't hurt to try the simplest approach first. 
`std.csv` can return an input range that you can then use to 
create a ndslice. Offhand, I don't know what D tools are an 
alternative to `std.csv` for reading CSVs.

ndslice assumes homogenous data, but you can put the Dates (as 
Date types) as part of the labels (as Data Frames). However, 
there's a bit to be desired in terms of getting that 
functionality integrated into the rest of the package [1].
