What do you think are the worst parts of D?
Oh another bad part of D is the attribute names with some being
positive(pure) and some being negative(@nogc) and some of them not
having an @ on them.
If that's among the worst, yay :o).
My pet peeves about D gravitate around the lack of a clear approach to
escape analysis and the sometimes confusing interaction of qualifiers
with constructors.
For escape analysis, I think the limited form present inside
constructors (that enforces forwarded this() calls to execute exactly
once) is plenty fine and should be applied in other places as well.
For qualifiers, I think we need an overhaul of the interaction of
qualifiers with copy construction.
