I agree that some sort of testing infrastructure should be built for documentation build, review, 
and testing.  I don't believe that the needs overlap sufficiently with code building and testing and 
can be made generic enough (the d doc tooling is _very_ specific to d) to fit into a generic CI tool 
that it fits within the current auto-tester.  There's certainly some very high level overlaps, but 
ultimately, I believe that something dedicated to documentation build/review/testing would be a 
better path.
