I'd like to throw in my support for this request. This is my last major 
gripe about D. Templates should just work out of the box, regardless of 
the type of output being compiled (executable or library), without 
requiring any tomfoolery from the programmer to work around shortcomings 
in the object file format. Build tools like Bud and Rebuild help 
alleviate the situation for projects that distribute source, but that's 
no solution.
