When i read the discussion, about the complicated const/final/invariant, it
come in my mind, if we really need pointer "*"?
Maybe we can solve this with ".ptr" .

What i have understand, we need it only to interface with C.
Ok, this is important enough.

I knew many people didn't like pointer "*" and make a bow about D. 

My 2 cents.
