Am I the only one who is concerned with the performance implications of
complicating the garbage collector any further, especially considering that
precise heap scanning will not completely solve any problems?

*I* care. I already have solutions for false pointer problems. If I'm going to
write an action video game in D, I sure as hell don't want the GC taking its
sweet time while the player gets fragged due to "screen lag".
