Should we horcruxify Phobos?
As far as low-hanging fruit, I think it may be worthwhile,
since this is really an implementation detail. The fixing of
true Voldemort types is likely not happening for a few
releases, as the principles don't seem to agree on the best
mechanism.

I also agree that fixing phobos this way is a good low hanging
fruit. Having symbol name and binary size explosion when using
basic phobos functionality could act as deterrent for early
adoption of the D language.
