Really? In some cases, it's indispensable. For instance, once
std.datetime has
been split up, it will require it, or it would have duplicate a bunch of
implementation-specific stuff which has no business in the public API.

It's entirely dependent on your coding style. For example, when you look
at Phobos you rarely (if ever?) see package functions. This is because
it's entirely module based with a strong degree of separation between
modules.

However, for someone coming from C#, removing package would be awful. I
personally use package quite often. For the most part, I stick to one
major class per file, and separate things across library. There are
plenty of things that I want other classes in the package/static-library
to use, but don't want to expose to the public, and thus use package for.

Phobos is a really good example. Modules tend to become more and more fat. And to split them up, package is mandatory.
