You'd have to write most every function twice, once to take immutable
args and again for mutable ones.
Doesn't 'inout' do almost the same thing?
The only difference I can see between const and inout, is that inout
tells which parameters could be aliased with the return value.
inout applies at the top level, but you cannot define a struct that has inout
fields.
