Sure. There is nothing unsafe in misusing __traits and extern(C) as
well.
There is if the result is
- memory corruption
- memory leaks no longer visible to the GC
- program crash
- ...
No problem, since that was the programmer's explicit purpose. C#
provides a ton of backdoors that could lead to what you mentioned in
your list.
That is why they have to :
- be marked unsafe
- be allowed by the security manager
In D's case it is no different, such code is only to be allowed in
@system code and partilly in @thrusted.
