Can I do this:
```
struct Foo { int a; }
auto rcs = RefCountedSlice!Foo(); // assume rcs.length > 0
scope Foo zero = rcs[0];
zero.a = 1337;
assert(rcs[0].a == 1337);
```
No, because the lifetime of zero exceeds the lifetime of
rcs[0].
Hm, that is really bad IMO. The shown use case is properly the
most common use case. Is there no way to make it transitive so
the lifetime of rcs[0] is the lifetime of rcs.
To be blunt, this is a real show-stopper for me.
No, the DIP doesn't handle several levels of indirection.
