1. Any bugs that prevent Tango from being ported to D2 (an empty list at the 
moment, but I'm still working on it ;)

2. Shared library support.

3. Prevent unnecessary closure allocations (or allow specification to 
prevent them).

4. Tail-const class references (you may say this isn't a bug, but its a huge 
hole that needs to be fixed for D const to be useful).

5. Scoped const (see bug 
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1961 )

#5 isn't really a fix to something that's 'broken', but it is a fix to the 
design that allows much easier const code.

If I can sneak in a couple more enhancements ;)

6. struct interfaces

7. true property definitions
