I think that increasing language complexity for the sake of
C++ integration is a dubious trade-off, especially since "all"
that's required is correct name mangling. There's no guarantee
of what the C++ side can do with any type of constness anyway,
I'd say that any "extern(C++)" mangles as C++ would and leave
it at that.

I agree with that concern. I would rather see the effort being
used to improve D - e.g support for GC-free code than to help
us integrate the complexity of C++ that D was intended to get
rid of.

A usable `shared` would even be nice.
