Thank you. I've got a lot of experience writing lexers and
heavily using them professionally, but I'm still finding ways
to make them better - faster - more encapsulated.
Since std.d.lexer won't be a third party module, but one that
comes with a compiler, it must pass muster as a top quality one
and be as good as the one in the compiler.
I will make it my mission to kick your
(metaphorical performance based) ass, sir.
