Suggestion: could you make it a compiler flag for the next release so we 
can try it out on our own code?  I for one have no idea how much pain 
the change will cause me.  I'm vaguely for it, since .ptr isn't that 
much to type, and generally I prefer explicit to implicit, but that's 
only if the pain involved is not too great.
