Errors in lexing are not uncommon. The usual D idiom of having an enum
StopOnError { no, yes } should be enough.
That's why I suggested supplying a callback delegate to decide what to do with errors (ignore, throw exception, or quit) and have the delegate itself do that. That way, there is no customization of the Lexer required.
