I plan to give a talk at Lang.NEXT

the subject above. There are a few features of D that turned

unimportant or diverging from related consecrated approaches.
What are your faves? I have a few in mind, but wouldn't want to
influence answers.

It isn't mainline yet, but UFCS from git has made working with
std.algorithm much nicer. Instead of something like
array(filter!"a > 0"(map!((a){return somefunc(a);})(data))) where
you can quickly drown in parenthesis and the order seems somewhat
backwards, you can use data.map!((a){return
somefunc(a);}).filter!"a > 0".array
