I'd like to quote the TDPL foreword by Walter:
"To the best of my knowledge, D offers an unprecedentedly adroit 
integration of several powerful programming paradigms: 
imperative, object-oriented, functional, and meta.
At first blush, it would appear that such a language could not be 
simple. And indeed, D is not a simple language. But I’d argue 
that is the wrong way to view a language. A more useful view is, 
what do programming solutions in that language look like? Are D 
programs complicated and obtuse, or simple and elegant?"

Thus, we shouldn't strive so much to make the language simple (by 
having the simplest possible definition for the 'package' 
keyword), but rather, we should try to make programs, which use 
modules broken into packages, look simple, elegant and easy to 
understand.
