I think this is a bad idea, and it doesn't solve the the intended problem,
beside having other problems. Weren't you against warnings? Instead I suggest
you to do this (in this order):
1) Go read 5 or 10 good recent research papers on this topic;
2) Go look at how 3 or 4 recently designed languages already solve this
problem;
3) Go in the D newsgroup, present your proposed solution and discuss it with
people;
4) Write a DIP, discuss it and try to remove all its corner cases and difficult
situations;
5) Try to implement it, offer it as experimental solution (with some compiler
switch? A pragma?), and collect usage opinions from people.
6) Fix and improve the design and implementation.
7) If all is OK, make it a permanent feature of the language, otherwise remove
it from the compiler.
