The native client has a rather static policy model. I suppose the future of mobile code is in dynamic languages like JVM & .NET based ones, Actionscript and Javascript. Of course you all disagree, you are free to do so. It just makes sense to me to use e.g. Java since it is not only faster than D in many cases, but it has a nice security model and a nice class loader (both of which are not perfect, though)
