For the record, this is also exactly what I argued for in the 
thread linked in the original post, from more than 7 years ago.

No redesigning from scratch is needed for this. Just add @trusted 
blocks and discourage (and perhaps slowly deprecate, over years) 
the use of @trusted as a function attribute.
