If D could be used with automatic reference counting (with native 
weak references with OPTIONAL automatic cycle collection), while 
remaining easy to interoperate with C++, that could be a good 
candidate...

I mean having something like that :

T* pointer on any type (scalar, struct, class)
T strong reference on a class
T^ weak reference on a class

And have --arc and --acc as compiler options.

PS: I know this won't happen unless I implement it myself, I got 
the message... ;)
