here's a new C++ proposal for overhauling their exception system to avoid
dynamic allocation for exceptions.  I guess it's not surprising that they're
dealing with similar issues for exception handing as the D community.

I didn't dig too deep,  but it looks like a pretty reasonable 
approach, except for requiring extra annotations for exceptions 
specification.

Here's the r/cpp thread where they're discussing the paper (with 
a link):

Worth mentioning that DIP 1008 makes exceptions Ref-counted 
instead of GC managed, so exceptions can now be  nogc in D
