MyObject o = func(new MyObject);

Here, "Object?" means Object or a derived type.

You know, just Object means Object or a derived type. That's what
inheritance is.

The idea is to be able to say in the function signature that the same
type is returned, avoiding a cast that would be unnecessary otherwise.
It's the same principle as for "const?", or "inout".

But you're right that my definition isn't very good.


T func(T)(T o);
