String literal are zero-terminated. "" cannot point to 0x0,
unless we drop this rule. Maybe we should...

Bye,

This is very false. I invite you to read almost any module in druntime.
You'll find that it makes heavy use of printf debugging.

That being said, dropping the null-termination rule when passing strings
to non-const(char)* parameters/variables/etc would be sane enough (I
think).


This looks to me like a bad practice. C string and D string are different beasts, and we have toStringz .

It is kind of dumb to create a WAT is the language because druntime dev did mistakes. It have to be fixed.
