Later I said 'IDE or text editor with special features for D...'
(e.g people using DCD on TextAdept or their cutting-edge console
mode text editor...).
This makes me think to a phobos Bug, seen monthes ago:
One templatized function, two overloads. Apparently the second
overload was added without unittest. It's been there for monthes.
One day somones managed to instantiate it in its code and got an
error about "unknown module: std.whatever".
The guy who added the second overload didn't use an IDE. with
completion he wouldn't have typed an invalid module name. True
story ;)
