Jacob Carlborg just recently brought this up in another thread. Isn't it kind of consensus that calling a destructor from the GC is not a good idea because of the restrictions that apply in this context? Andrei even wanted to deprecate destructors for classes because of this. Maybe a better direction would be to separate the concepts of destruction and finalization, and introduce two kinds of "destructors" for them.
I think we need to stay with what we have. Adding a distinct kind of destructor might be interesting. -- Andrei
