Thank you, so this project would need to be maintained alongside D2
development, just like D1 was.
Is it really worth taking effort away from D2 when so much is left to
do there?
A few if() blocks and some code to parse a command-line option is hardly
a "project" that needs to be "maintained alongside D2 development".
However, I agree that there are better things the core compiler
maintainers could do with their time. I think such a switch would be
easy enough to implement and maintain by whoever needs it.
It does overlap with another suggestion however, the no gc crowd and -nogc.
I'd think if you can disable gc through -betterC, then it would be
trivial to satisfy the no gc crowd as well.
Bu then again I don't really know.
