Mike Hearn has started a thread on the Kotlin (*) mailing list extolling
the virtues of D's transitive const. Andrey Breslav (the leader of the
Kotlin team at JetBrains) has made a couple of replies that I think may
be interesting here:
As C++ and D show, const is not that easy. We'd like to
It's very hard to keep up-to-date with all these successors to
Java. Every half a year a new language appears, and it's always

I am not sure it is possible to design such module so that it
