I think we could do the whole owned pointer concept in D too, by making a struct with a disabled copy constructor. I don't know much about Rust's specifics though so not sure if that's an exact match.
I don't see how struct with a disabled copy constructor is relevant to owned pointers. Most similar thing D has is "scope" qualifier concept (and that is why I do want it so hard :)) - hard guarantee that no pointer to your data will live longer than data itself. All normal pointers become managed pointers in that sense.
