void test(const int n)

Gives this error:
cannot modify const expression j


Is this considered a feature or a bug? I would assume most
people wouldn't want new variables inheriting const.

It's a bit annoying. I don't remember people discussing this
small problem. I don't know if it's easy to "fix" it and what
side effects such change could cause.

should that be fixed - i don't think that any auto removal of
const, immutable, shared or anything else should just happen silently

and how would it look to preserve the const if auto would auto-rip it of?
