Unfortunately that is my experience as well, even for senior developers.  
The ones that are able to get things done without an IDE are most often  
the 'geeks' 'aces' 'pro's', people with passion for the language/platform.
When D wants to gain broader adoption (beyond the geek/ace/pro) an IDE  
like experience is indispensable and good debugging facilities is absolute  
mandatory!

Well w.r.t the CDT / linuxtools / pyDEV I can only say it has improved a  
_lot_ over the last years. In fact it has become my IDE of choice for  
C/C++/pyhon development on Linux/BSD.
