I miss ref variables, for the simple fact that using the

Possibly adding something like this, if ref variables are off
the table?
@noarray int* value;
value[x] = 10; // compile error, pointer is not an array.
void main()@safe{
int x;
int* value;
value[x]=10;
}
Error: safe function 'D main' cannot index pointer 'value'
Need it in unsafe/trusted code though.
