It's not a religious book, but since the D docs aren't kept up to date, who can
you trust? And AFAIK Andrei & Walter have both reviewed TDPL and agree with
what it states there. As for structs on the heap, I simply didn't know it was
possible to do that, so maybe I judged to quickly from what I've read. 

Whether it's legal or not is not up to me, so don't take it personal please. :)
