I'm not 100% convinced but it seems to me RC vs. GC is a class
design time decision.
The right strategy for memory management depend on the usage
you'll do of an object, not of the object itself.
Or, in other terms, the client code know more about the adapted
memory management. Complex library solution probably need to
adopt some strategy, but for most library (especially for
something like phobos), it make sense to offload that choice on
the user.
That is a looser strategy.
I'm sure there are tighter ones :o).
Padam tshhhhhh !
