Time will tell how long it will take people to become idiomatically proficient 
in D. But also consider that Andrei's book "Modern C++ Design" completely 
changed the idiomatic way people wrote C++ programs. A 1990's state of the art 
C++ program is very different from a 2010 one.

We've only just begun figuring out the right way to write D programs.
