Structs are ok. Classes are not. Do you really want to forbid this use
case:
class A
{
private A _parent;
private A[] _children;
this(A parent)
{
if (parent !is null) {
_parent = parent;
_parent._children ~= this;
}
}
}
auto parent = new A;
auto child = new A(parent);
?
I don't see how that is incompatible with what Walter said. Of course
one would need to update pointers to the moved classes.
