I actually like the idea of :unique. It's just finding a viable way to
implement it may prove more fun.
Then again, if copy on write can be made to work across threads, I guess it
all becomes irrelevant, as with that anything that is not modified is stored
only once.
OK. But until it's rewritten, I think we should turn it into a no-op that
emits a deprecation warning. Opinions ?
Agree.
