That would be possible. I'm afraid that would result in people
sprinkling these "constant" keywords everywhere to make the program
supposedly run faster. -- Something like that has happened with the
"final" keyword in some Java houses.

That would prevent the ad hoc installation of wrappers, debugging tools
etc.
