I have suggested std.io time ago, but someone doesn't like it:
http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4718
It's not enough of an improvement to rename std.stdio to std.io just to
rename
it. However, if Steven's ultimate changes are different enough that a
separate
module is needed for a clean migration path, and those changes do get
accepted
into Phobos, then naming the new module std.io makes good sense.
When I get my re-revamped stdio working, it will likely involve std.io
(which I independently decided to use). It will not be a replacement for
stdio, but will be used by stdio.
So I'm glad others think this is a good idea.
