I have thought about building this into D many times,
especially since the Digital Mars C compiler is now available
since it is Boost licensed.
I did that as an experiment. Embedding DStep in the compiler
[1]. It got a mixed response. Some prefer to have it as a
separate tool, some prefer to have it built-in. DStep depends
on libclang, meaning the compiler would depend on libclang as
well.

I started working on something like this, but not integrated with
the compiler. But also not like DStep.
