Interesting. Should I do the same in phobos?

stdout("wyda");

I'd like that particularly because write() is too common a name to place 
at namespace level for my taste. So then we'd have:

stdout("wyda"); // no newline
stdout("wyda\n"); // newline but no flushing on binary stream
stdout("wyda", newline); // write'n'flush
stdout.writeln("wyda"); // same

If we go that route I'll even drop writeln and rely on passing newline. 
For formatting there'd be stdout.format and stdout.formatln or something.
