Wait, this is back? What else did the community get wrong when 
trying to interpret discussions?

Previously proposed, but now dropped:

     * opImplicitCast
     * Separating arrays and slices (T[new]) (see 
NG:digitalmars.D/95225)
         Demise of T[new] NG:digitalmars.D/98602
     * Make references and arrays library types (see NG discussion)
     * this() for structs.
     * Make array literals immutable.
     * Remove 'new'.
     * Remove C-style struct initializers.
