Unqual is used all over the place in Phobos to remove const. I don't think 
that shared is considered much at all at this point. And given the various 
issues with shared, you generally have to temporarily cast it to non-shared to 
do anything with it anyway. shared is one of those things that may be okay in
principle but which hasn't had all of its minor details properly sorted out
yet.
