I think we are too late for D2, the book is pretty much finished except
for the concurrency chapter. It is a great idea though, I would have
loved to see this happen before D2 was released. Maybe D3 can have this
change.
I forgot one really really important requirement -- a class reference
needs to not be a general pointer.
For example:
Foo *foo;
foo++; // must be equivalent to foo.opInc(), not add one to the pointer.
This may be the death knell of the idea. I don't see Walter accepting
similar syntaxes to be drastically different, and distinguishing safe D as
not using pointers is going to be a huge problem if you can't use classes.
