AIUI: DWT doesn't support D2 (neither does wxD). QtD requires a patched DMD, MinGW (which is fucking god-awful), and cmake (I have to let some variant of "make" touch my computer? Why can't we just let make die?). And it requires running your code through a preprocessor. And none of those have actual API documentation, they just refer to the C/C++ docs. I use D because I never want to look at another line of C++ as long as I live. Everything else is either non-native or non-cross-platform. The state of GUIs in D right now is pretty awful, unfortunately. My plate's already overpacked (think: teenager at a one-trip buffet), but maybe I'll see if I can squeeze in enough extra time (hah! there's a concept I've completely lost all memory of) to try to help out on something. After all, I *really* want to get around to making my own web browser (based off either Mozilla or Chromium) - I'm getting really fed up with the current state of available web browsers. Well, and the web as a whole (god I fucking hate the web), but one step at a time, I guess).
