Breaking D2 language/spec changes with D1 being discontinued in a month

[Danni Coy]

Holy crap I had no idea that this conference even existed. It turns out I
am in melbourne for the next few days for entirely different reasons. Manu
thinks I should buy you a drink (i concur)...

I am generally in favour of the language being good rather than being
stable at this point in time. This is general keeping with the philosophy
that the right way do do things should be the easiest way to do things.
