The example you gave of .ptr resulting in unsafe code has been in
bugzilla since 2013, and has an open PR on it to fix it.

You didn't submit it to bugzilla - if you don't post problems to
bugzilla, most likely they will get overlooked, and you will get
frustrated. @safe issues are tagged with the 'safe' keyword in bugzilla.
If you know of other bugs with @safe, and they aren't in the list,
please add them. Saying generically that @safe has holes in it is
useless information since it is not actionable and nobody keeps track of
bugs posted on the n.g. nor are they even findable if you suspect
they're there.
Not sure if this is what deadalnix thinks about but @safe should be a
whitelist of features, not a blacklist [1]. But you already closed that
bug report as invalid.
