You're a walking sound bite generator.

On the note of inlining C++ into D.  I guess this is the domain where we
will have to rely on LTO taking you there.  Not an advertisable feature
though.

Catching foreign language exceptions.  It's supported but we only act as a
messenger.  Intercept the thrown exception and pass it on, with the
expectation that higher up the backtrace is the C++ or whatever language
catch handler to deal with it.  I don't see catching or throwing C++
exceptions from D ever happening.  At least, you need more help than just
mangling and layout.

Great interview! It's a shame though that you didn't point people 
to your "Generic Programming Must Go" talk when you were talking 
about std.allocator and design by introspection.
