1. Ref Counting
I believe that ARC is a pipe dream for D, as we've discussed extensively here.
But a ref counted object should work, and would be very attractive, much like
C++'s shared_ptr<T>.
How does this differ from std.typecons.RefCounted?
Let me put it this way: users all complain that D doesn't have ref counting. If
typecons.RefCounted works, why is this happening? What can be done to convince
people that D does ref counting? If it doesn't work, what needs to be done to
fix it?
