I like that sound. It still seems logical for me to view this as D dorian though. Same notes different focus. The change of focus doesn't constitue a new mode (to my ear). It sounds more like extensions of the underlying harmony. Dmin/A or even Asus to Dmin.....
Thanks for providing something new to think about! I look at those books and do some more ear training on these re-focused modes.
