As far as I can tell classes have the same problem.

Nope.

void foo(someclass aa, int x, int y)
{
aa[x] = y;
}

void main()
{
someclass aa;
foo(aa, 1, 2); // segfault
...
}

We could easily arrange things to segfault just the same with a
struct-based implementation.


Structs are quite borked in this regard e.g. without extra efforts the following:

somclass aa = someclass();
foor(aa, 1, 2); // segfault, surprize someclass() is someclass.init

The current workaround I find the most sensible is:
- @disable this();
- make all constructors private
- define opCall and forward it to private constructors. 0-arg versions have to pass dummy and/or default values to get struct constructed

- automate this boilerplate until something in language is fixed? :)

The advantage is that the following is illegal:
someclass aa;

and the following works as expected:
auto aa = someclass(); //create empty container damn it!
