Well different people, different opinions I guess. The phobos
documentation layout really does a great job at being simple and still
good-looking. But when heavy template usage is documented
(std.algorithm) I sometimes feel lost (in std.algorithm 'Until' is an
example for that). I think some color there is helpful. But the great
thing about ddoc is you can have both.

The semicolon rules are important for xml - I don't want semicolons in
my xml output ;-) (Though it could be argued whether xml output is
needed at all)

yes candydoc is nice, but AFAIK it's not maintained since quite some time.
