I think you are coming at this as someone who knows a lot about C 
and D already (not that Guillaume doesn't). The relevant question 
to me is how much work is it for someone relatively new to D to 
figure out how to call C code. If it importC reduces the barrier, 
then I see it as a positive, even if there are other tools that 
work better for you or others.
