So, with that, we can have const work wonderfully without

if it does take a bit of work to get around it with classes.
So, what am I
missing here? Why doesn't this work? Or has Walter just not
properly
considered this option?

This is exactly the kind of balance I am hoping we can
implement. I think Hara Kenji suggested something very similar
at one point, but it had some kind of problem with it. It would
be awesome if Kenji could provide some insight on that. I think
his proposal is somewhere on Github, I'll have a look.
The relevant discussion containing the proposal is here:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/262
I was wrong; I don't see anyone having found any flaws with the
final proposal.
And while the proposal wasn't explicitly accepted nor rejected,
it doesn't look like it found its way into the final pull request:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/pull/72
