Sounds good, I'll do this.  Is it in the main Qt Creator codebase or hosted 
somewhere else?  (Google is not very helpful here...)

I was surprised that auto-indentation didn't seem to work at all with .d files, 
simply because most of the syntax is so similar to C/C++.  Certainly from an 
indentation point of view the important elements should be almost identical.

Is there any way to indicate in Qt Creator Preferences that .d files should be 
auto-indented using a particular rule-set?
