Couldn't this easily be supported by an IDE by coloured

no because... wait... that... that could work.
Ok. Then ... who is writing this IDE ?
I'm just saying it's a solution that doesn't require adding a
breaking feature to D. I know MonoDevelop has the ability to
color user-types and such, maybe eventually Alex will be able to
add such a feature.
If the compiler developers can't or won't add 'foo(ref x)'
semantics to the compiler, then this is really the only option
left available that gives the same level of insight to developers
that C# does.
