Yup. Today they can be unmarked, defaulting to @system. With DIP 1028,
they can be explicitly marked @system. Either way, they don't show up
when you only look for "@trusted".

As long as they're @safe, sure. But they can also be @system.
An example:
----
const int x = 42;
const int y = 43;
void main() @safe
{
import std.stdio;
writeln(x, " ", y); /* Prints "42 43" as expected. */
auto px = &x;
auto py = &y;
writeln(*px, " ", *py); /* Prints "13 14". Wat? */
}
int* p = cast(int*) &x;
static this() @system { *p = 13; *++p = 14; }
