Another bonus to introducing the mutable keyword is the option to make
everything immutable by default (in a future version of D) and allow

While some folks do bring that up from time to time, I think that it's
pretty clear that that would be so restrictive that it would risk
killing D. As it is, many programmers avoid const altogether, because
it's too restrictive.
Immutable by default would not be what we have now (transitive immutable).
