IMO, it makes things worse. Because the careless programmer will 
slap @trusted to every declaration (maybe with a script or 
find/replace macro of his editor). So now, we don't know if the 
annotation is greenwashing or careful examination of the 
definition.

At least with "@trusted:" and "@trusted { }", the greenwashing is 
obvious.
