Agreed at least with the "killing the mall" part :o).
While I agree with Andrei's agreements (!), the rationale for the current
approach is to make it relatively straightforward to translate existing Java
code into D. There was a fair amount of this in the early days of D, I'm not
sure how much of that lately.
