I'd like to really work on it properly (it would seem like an exciting project to work on!), and update DDMD to be more D2-like, e.g. that entire main.d module seems to re-implement argument passing via C APIs just like DMD's C++ code, but this seems unnecessary to me? Replacing that with getopt() would cut that module down to a tiny fragment of its original size. What I'm really interested in doing is building interfaces to DDMD via various functions so it can be used by tools on demand. If I get something rolling I might put it up on github or somewhere, will let you know..
