I can tell you right now that he wants a generic, template-based lexer /

worth having a hand-written port of the dmd front-end's lexer and parser to
Phobos so that we can have on official lexer and parser in Phobos which parse D
the same way that the compiler does.

I think it's absolutly worth having a hand-written port of the DMD front
end in Phobos.
