Do you still remember some cases why you disliked D?
Would you mind adding some comments about why you think D lacks?

Trying to collect arguments..

C++11: About C++ I dislike that its a lot more verbose than eg haxe.
Example:
var m = new Hash<Int,Sting>();
^^^ and these types can even be omitted
m.set(2,"abc");

But I agree that C++(11) at least fixes the most urgent problems, it
provides typed lists/hashes/...

I also always wondered why I have to maintain .h and .c* files.
Why doesn't the compiler generate the .h files? (probably CPP #if reasons)
