I'm also in favor of "let the user pick", but I would use a global
variable:

----
enum MemoryManagementPolicy { gc, rc, mrc }
immutable
     gc = ResourceManagementPolicy.gc,
     rc = ResourceManagementPolicy.rc,
     mrc = ResourceManagementPolicy.mrc;

auto RMP = gc;
----

and in my code:

----
RMP = rc;
string str = "foo"; // compiler knows -> ref counted
// ...
RMP = gc;
string str2 = "bar"; // normal behaviour restored
----

This won't work because the type of "string" is different for RC vs. GC. -- Andrei
