...and the implementation, as presented, falls apart due to not 
forwarding arguments correctly. Not insurmountable, of course, 
although `forward` really should be an intrinsic and not a 
library function.

And due to looking for a `__dtor` instead of `__xdtor`. And due 
to the fact that ya can't use the proposed `destroy` function 
with a reference to base class and still call the destructor of 
derived class correctly, let alone infer attributes correctly. 
And due to it trusting the `pureFree` when it shouldn't.

Can't see anything news-worthy here. This has been possible for 
ages, and is still limited to wazoo by classes being married to 
druntime, pessimized by lack of proper forwarding in the 
language, and can't be @safe.
