What GUI lib do you tend to use in D? if you don't use the one you want, what's preventing it?

This is beyond sad for D. The forever-neverending shitstorm that has 
always been the user-facing side of GTK is one of the top reasons I 
abandoned the tech sector as a whole. D's been around for how long now, 
and apparently the *only* worthwhile D GUI is *still* cemented to the 
ungodly POS that is the GTK project? A small, very naive part of me was 
really hoping to see that at least something non-trivial might've 
improved in D since I last checked in (because god knows it certainly 
hasn't anywhere else in the tech sector) GTK of all things.....
