I see no way of getting [these](http://unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/BidiBrackets.txt) properties for unicode code points in the std.uni library. How do I get these properties?

Looks like it's too new. std.uni references "Unicode v6.2" as the standard it complies with, but that BidiBrackets.txt was "originally created [...] for Unicode 6.3".

That's sad.
Maybe there's an easy way for me to add it to phobos.

Nearly ten thousand lines in std.uni, great.

Well, Unicode _is_ stupidly complicated. However, also remember that those lines include the unit tests and documentation, so it's not as much code as it might first seem like.
