H. S. Teoh:
So this isn't a regression; it's *pro*gression!
(And on that note, I'd like to propose that code breakage of
this sort
*should* be allowed in D. While we *should* be stabilizing the
language,
I don't think it's right to go to the opposite extreme of
hindering
language fixes just so badly-written code will continue to
compile.
Better to get user code cleaned up of similar unsafe practices
I think this is another example of the same:
