As far as I can tell, it's completely benign, it just eliminates the
annoying edge cases when interacting with functions that take
arguments by ref. There's no spill-over affect anywhere that I'm aware
of, and if you can find a single wart, I definitely want to know about
it.

I've asked so many times for a technical destruction, nobody will
present any opposition that is anything other than a rejection *in
principle*. This is a holy war, not a technical one.
That's extremely unfair. It is just a bad idea to overload D const for
this purpose. Remove the "const" requirement and I'm on board.
