It was "Delphi 7" before.

Nice!

Honestly, I don't care much. I would prefer "private" to consistently mean "private to this scope". Given that languages like Python are doing well without any access attributes, we could just leave it as is.

Perl modules make for a good compromise -- when a module needs to be found, it's a 1:1 correlation to filename, but for modules referred to within the file, there is no such requirement.

That having been said, I can count on my fingers the number of times I've actually used multiple modules per file, and won't miss them writing D.

That is why build systems such as makefile exist for a very good reason. Even the C# requires the project solution.
