That's true, but FWIW, I do intend to place a very strong emphasis on compatablity with the official Haxe. (It even accepts Haxe's command line params to the extent possible, and I plan to support .hxml files.) As far as any deliberate deviations (such as #105), such things will be purely optional. Anything else is to be considered a bug in HaxeD.
