I'd push for an ARC implementation. I've become convinced that's what I
actually want, and that GC will never completely satisfy my requirements.

Additionally, while I can see some value in @nogc, I'm not actually sold on
that personally... it feels explicit attribution is a backwards way of
going about it. ie, most functions may actually be @nogc, but only the ones
that are explicitly attributed will enjoy that recognition... seems kinda
backwards.
