After reading through the discussion, would it be more prudent to 
request that it can be used with printf and @nogc, even if an 
additional template is required to translate?

D has created a focus on working well without a GC. So it would 
make sense that new features would be aligned with that concept.

Whereas old language features can both remain using GC and not 
supporting printf.


```
import std;
import core.stdc.stdio;

@nogc
void main()
{

     auto W = "world" ;
     printf(toStringz("Hello " ~ W ~ " D"));
}
```
