The more competition the better I say. If people decide they don't like
n-brain, they won't use it. Let the people decide. Having D in yet
another editor gives people choice. Its yet another marketing resource
for D. The more people that use D the better support D will get.
Also many languages share the same core mechanics so having a
multi-language editor is not all bad. Hell, VS was never designed for
Lua or DSL but I need to switch to that sometimes and I want to use
something I'm familiar with.
