seems the similarly annoying 
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14835 is in the way.

If anyone would like to look into the latter that would be great. Good 
regression testing (e.g. on dub projects) would be necessary.

I can take a look at 259. 14835 is nothing trivial though.

My understanding is Thomas has an attack on 259 once a solution to 14835 is up. -- Andrei

Yes. The path to fix 259 is clear, and Lionello Lunesu and myself have already done most of the work. 14835 is a blocker due to the nature of the solution that Walter and Andrei approved (which I agree is the right one); an independent implementation would run in to the same problem.

Only if that blocker is dealt with - otherwise it's just wasted effort...
