I would like to remind everyone: the Feedback thread is exclusively for review of the contents of the DIP, e.g., suggestions for how to revise it. All replies, except those from the DIP author and those amending a previous post, must be a direct reply to the initial post. If you want to discuss any particular comments you see in the Feedback thread (like the practicality of making extern(C) functions @safe), please post your remarks in the Discussion thread.

Not only does this keep all DIP feedback in one place, it saves me a helluva lot of time in finding that feedback for the review summary as I don't have to wade through 20+ pages of tangential discussion. This has already proven its value and I am keeping this feedback vs. discussion separation for every DIP review going forward.

And I *will* delete any post in the Feedback thread that breaks the rules,  no matter who posts them. I've just deleted three.

Thanks!
