Marco Leise:
The extent of what borrowing solves is really yaw dropping when you read the list of use cases and I will surely add scope to every function argument that it applies to (and already do that), because it makes it verifiable safe to call with any pointer type, be it ARC, GC or stack. I consider that more important than const or pure.
I consider the tracking of memory ownership more important for D than the whole reference counting discussions (despite the two topics are partially linked). Because it's a correctness issue (and will also lead to some performance improvements too).
