In the docs for std.format we have the following example:

"answer");
assert(writer.data == "42 is the ultimate answer.");
// Clear the writer
writer = appender!string();
formattedWrite(writer, "Date: %2$s %1$s", "October", 5);
assert(writer.data == "Date: 5 October");

This does not compile because where it imports std.c.stdio it
should import instead std.array. Are the docs not being
compiled, to check for errors? Perhaps that could be improved,
by automatically compiling all the docs and checking for errors
(if they all should just compile then it's straightforward,
otherwise it would be necessary to tag them as 'should compile'
where appropriate, or by adding the necessary scaffolding to
ensure compilation).
The recently added unittests used for ddoc examples feature
solves this but it requires people to go through and make the
examples into unittests.
The js "jump to" headers also seem not to be working well. In
std.conv I get (in both Chrome and Safari):
Improve this page _to!TargetType(value) (and not some
variant of toImpl)." class="button">Page wiki View or edit the

ddoc bug. I've fixed this before on this page by tweaking the
macro ordering but I didn't look into what's actually causing it.

In other pages it seems to work, but it is often very slow to
generate the jump to headers.

A recent pull makes the jump to list generate before the page is
shown so we won't get it suddenly appearing anymore. It's not
the jump to list that's slow, it's hyphenate.js that is the
bottleneck. The jump list generation would happen after the slow
page hyphenation occurred.
