I was going to say, for someone who wants to stop work on enhancements, you 
sure do make a lot of requests.

Here is what I would like to caution you about, even for "future suggestions." 
One of the hardest parts of an idea is polishing it. Then finding someone to 
implement it, so it can be polished more. Then implementing it. So even ideas 
for D3 would be a distraction from getting things done in D2. This means you'll 
get many (Walter, Andrei...) that will not be participating in such discussions 
and only take quick glances.

The approach I would suggest. Is to assume an idea has already been discussed. 
Go to the D.learn section and post a question on how best to solve ... and 
include what you'd like to do. This will keep new ideas coming in, but have 
them directed through a filter. Even just rephrasing a topic becomes a learning 
experience, "why can't I be explicit about what is compile-time?"

Enjoy learning D and I hope you find good uses for it.
