Also, this module representation may be an opportunity for us to 
compile D to something a C++ compiler can digest (maybe ?).

Not sure about Clang, but GCC already knows about modules from Fortran.
The only difference I forsee is that the dwarf generator will be adapted to
emit both modules and namespaces in the same CU - as opposed to just
modules or just namespaces.

Compatibility with template-heavy c++ code.
other then that I can see no reason to do so.

I'd rather see the Opposite happen.

I think I would prefer if C++ compilers started spitting out D 
bindings instead ;)
