Is it possible and a good idea to change the D ABI to make code like this avoid an array copy in 100% of the cases (without inlining)?

ubyte[1000] foo() nothrow @safe {
    typeof(return) data;
    // some code here.
    return data;
}
void main() nothrow {
    immutable data = foo();
}

Isn't this a case for Named Return Value Optimization?
