Alternatively, you can @disable this(this), which would make copies illegal, but then I'd be worried about code breaking when the compiler adjusted some of its optimizations (though it would generally be unlikely for a move to become a copy - the opposite would be far more likely, which wouldn't break anything). - Jonathan M Davs
