IIRC you can right now point to code that makes the memory management choice 
at a much finer level: lots of graphics and other types of RT code have large 
chunks of code that do zero allocation (they don't even uses malloc) but 
rather keep externally supplied buffers around to work with. In D where detecting 
allocations is harder than just greping for malloc, having compiler support 
would be really nice.
