One further thing: I didn't make the sink version of message @nogc,
but in actuality, it could be.
We recently introduced support for output ranges in the formatting of
Phobos:
https://dlang.org/changelog/2.079.0.html#toString
Output ranges have the advantage that they could be @nogc and because of
the templatization also @safe.
I don't think that will work here, as Throwable is a class.
All I can think of is that you would have 2 versions, a @nogc one that
takes a @nogc delegate, and one that is not.
Of course, your exception type could define something completely
separate, and you can deal with it in your own project as needed.
If there was a way to say "this is @nogc if you give it a @nogc
delegate, and not if you don't", that would be useful. The compiler
could verify it at compile-time.
