Pony relates to Rust in terms of what they are trying to

That probably makes Pony easier to compare to D. I was just
noting that Rust shares some ownership stuff with Pony. I suppose
I'm curious what is the bare minimum that needs to get added to D
to enjoy the benefits of an ownership system (and it seemed like
something like the iso type was most important).
