Could you share this? I would be very interested in how you

My ad hoc pointer experiments try to be general and is 
convoluted, so not the best example. The basic idea is to have a 
pointer type that match "&&" in C++ (which cannot be done 
completely).

So we have something like:

struct moving(T){
   T* ptr;
  ~this(){ assert(ptr is null); } // optional check to ensure 
that the move is completed
}

then have a move() function that returns a moving!T struct

In you pointer struct you match opAssign(moving!T ...) to emulate 
"operator=(T&& ...)" and set the ptr field to null to prevent it 
from being used again (if you want that extra check).
