D is a very ambitious language, and we are definitely shooting for the
stars with it. That means that there are many features that missed or
otherwise failed to find a target. So we're doing a little pruning for
D2, and a big part of posting these possible prunes here is to make sure
we aren't missing an important use case for them.
One problem C/C++ has is there are several failed features in them that
the C/C++ community has repeatedly tried to excise, but they just won't
die. Trigraphs are an example.
And custom operator new is another :o).
