I miss ref variables, for the simple fact that using the

object has pointers to other objects of the same type.
Possibly adding something like this, if ref variables are off
the table?
@noarray int* value;
value[x] = 10; // compile error, pointer is not an array.
You could always create a wrapper struct for the pointer and
then not overload opIndex.

Not the most ideal solution, doesn't work with several other
features like auto.
