Thank you. This is just what I needed. I am curious though as
to why this doesn't work with strings. It would work if I
removed immutable from the Boxed constructor but I thought
strings were immutable. I get a compiler error 'not callable
using a mutable object'. Even marking a string with the
immutable keyword has the same result.
auto s = new immutable(Boxed!string)(`foo`);
what it's saying is that the box itself needs to be immutable.
Honestly I don't know why it was even possible to make a mutable
box in the first place, when the only constructor is marked
`immutable`.
