The documentation of std.uni [1] says that the unicode struct

way to query non-binary properties of a character. Is that
possible with std.uni or do I need to use a third-party library?
I am specifically interested in the East_Asian_Width property
[2] (which has six allowed values). Trying to access
std.uni.unicode.East_Asian_Width results in the error message:
No unicode set by name East_Asian_Width was found.

It seems the East Asian width is Unicode standard 13.0, while
Phobos implements 6.2. So seems like ca case for a third-party
library :(.
