I don't have a deep understanding of the DMD CTFE engine, but wouldn't it
suffice to do a conversion to a string literal if the type is immutable(char)[]
and to an array literal otherwise? This would only have to be done once
(recursively on the entire return value) as a final sanitizing step after the
CTFE execution has run to completion. This would make both lines illegal, as
you suggest.
