It has been mentioned that before that this would be worthwhile
for D too.
It also would make it much easier for backends to keep up with
the front end. The front end generating MIR, and the backends
using it.
Another option would be to interface with Rust by generating
Rust MIR from D, if that is possible.
What do you think?
This is what SDC is doing already.
