yes, but would be cool to have official support from jetbrains,

Don't stay silent, post comment on their page :D
Well, according to the blog entry, the Rust plugin was a side
project for an intern
While this is official support, it seems they are not really
adding a lot more manpower behind it, it will mostly remain the
work for this intern
They dont have plans for a standalone rust ide, like clion for c++
In other words, it really didnt cost them much to support this
plugin
And I see very little commercial incentive for them to support D
I think a community support for the Dlang intellij plugin is our
best hope
we can start a kickstarter project and donate money to them ..
might work
I would donate to them if they also include a refactoring tool
