That was indeed what I was using in my updated ref based

so why not add it to phobos:
it's safer (no null / invalid pointers)
simpler user code
more consistent with rest of phobos
we could either make the existing by pointer functions enter a
deprecation path, or add a 'formattedReadRef' version for all those
functions.
Thoughts?
You can just add an overload I bet. Since you can't read a pointer and
&x is an r-value and (thank god) there wasn't decision to allow r-value
as plain ref.
