Anyway, that strange kind of "IntelliSense" feels more like random-insert than auto-complete.

... in general (I have not even thought of that snippet insertion-bullshit-usability)

I assume you also come from C# development.

Therefore, I suggest you to try coding C or C++ in Visual Studio (or even worse: try Atmel Studio). You will have pretty the same user experience like with D.

For those who do not know, what I mean: It does not feel that smooth and straight forward like programming C#, e.g. in C# Visual Studio makes suggestions based on great code analysis and shows all usefull (as far as I remember, VisualD often also shows syntactically incorrect ones) possibilities (but pre-selects the most-likely best one in the IntelliSense box).
