But note this has the disadvantage of making less easy to adapt a backend (like
LLVM) to D. This may reduce or slow down the diffusion of D to other compilers
and platforms. So every one of such special feature backend has to chosen with
care.
In the near term most people may chose LLVM as the most used backend for the D
language, so if LLVM isn't able to support some of those features (but
exceptions are too much basic, they will be necessary), such features will
become virtually absent from D programs you can see around and in the end from
D language itself.

his own backend is better for the evolution of D - and THAT is what we
want - there a serveral good(and even bad) compiler-backends out there
but the language is still missing
the backend-problems will be addressed later - and there won't be a show
stopper not in LLVM, GCC or .NET ...
