Personally, when I face the need for a size_t, I usually can

i bet that "woobooAAARGH" will be even easier to recognize than
"size_t". as there is no other types in D with "_t" suffix, you
have to
remember that anyway, so it doesn't really matter which one to
remember. ;-)
Now that you say it, indeed the code won't be fancy if it goes
like
woobooAAARGH len = name.length;
I'll go with an auto here, or yet another type alias.
Perhaps I don't have strong feelings against size_t because I
like old_c_style_variable_names more than theNewShinyCamelCase.
It's just a personal preference.
