It's a big plus. ;)
[1] Obviously, not a practical short term option for the

language. That's probably clear from the context, and the

was meant to be rhetorical -- but it could actually be done
and would
make sense; it's just not a change that would make enough of
a
difference on its own; the cost would be to high.
Why to high? Too much compiler magic or dmd internal
dependences?
I disagree that it's too high. It just needs *somebody* with
the right
knowledge about DMD internals (and enough free time on their
hands >:-))
to pull it off.
I thought (s)he was asking about *arrays*, not AAs. There's no
disagreement
about removing AA magic - that does not involve language
changes.

Yes, he was. ;)
Thanks for explanation.
