I do however still think that using $( ) to delineate start and end of

I don't think that's fair. AFAICS the only reason there's a "Stray ')'" issue
to be concerned about is because the ) character is used to mark the end of a
Ddoc macro.
OK, I accept that it's rare that you get a ) without it being preceded by an
opening ). But there are surely much rarer (in code) characters that could have
been used, or the end-of-macro marker could have been chosen to be something
completely unambiguous like $) or )$.
