Could you please explain?
At this point, I was suggesting that 'in' be used without
changes, so no DIP should be required for that.
As far as the new rvalue DIP, I would only add `in` as an
additional requirement for rvalues binding to `ref`. The only
issue I can see with this is `in` indirectly adding `scope` to a
`ref` parameter, which after DIP25, doesn't really make sense.
DMD v2.085.0 does allow adding `scope` to a `ref` param with
-dip25, which seems odd. Do the duplicate storage classes
collapse by design (like C++'s reference collapsing), or will
'scope ref' eventually fail to compile or change meaning?
