This is most likely where the egg cracks open. i'm pretty sure we willl see people migrating to using D (at first a mixture between D and C, because of the libraries from the vendors), but later, there'll surely be projects which are pure D. -After all, it's not difficult to convert a library file from C to D. :)
The STM peripheral library really sux, verbose boilerplate for the simplest stuff and no type safety for the enums (find the difference of GPIO_PIN4 and GPIO_PinSource4 via debugging). It's also really hard to setup all the startup files, linker scripts and debugger configs.
In constrast we could provide a really amazing D experience on those platforms.
