           Summary: Implicitly allowing objects which contain delegates to
                    be shared/immutable can cause races

Consider this code:

class Foo
{
   this(ref int _i) { dg = (){return _i;} }
   ref int delegate() dg;
}

immutable Foo f;

int notShared;

shared static this()
{
   f = new Foo(notShared);
}

Since f is implicitly shared, it provides access to notShared from the main
thread's local storage without protections (locks or immutable guarantees). 
All one has to do is call the delegate dg.

I think in order to prevent this from accidentally happening, you should be
required to cast to either shared or immutable a delegate or anything that
contains a delegate (directly or indirectly).

The same issue occurs with shared.

This is related to bug 6741
