I haven't really thought how it could be implemented but I was

I haven't looked at Rust in detail, but doesn't the Rust
compiler take full control over memory management? I think that
is a good idea, but it is at odds with D's general direction.
Rust makes use of the type system and the borrow checker to
validate how the pointers are being used.
The usual errors when dealing with pointers are compile time
errors in Rust.
