Removing class destructors would break my DQt library as it currently

for a few people.
So, having said that... I am completely in favour of removing class
destructors. It's a simple principle. When you have to do less work,
things can run faster. So I can see removing class destructors as a
feature leading to reduced pause times. Destructors exist only for
resource management. Doing resource management through GC... is a bad idea.
I've decided what I'll do. I'll implement both and let the user choose.
