Is "auto t=T();" not the same as "T t;"?

Agreed. It should be fine when the elements are immutable as I've 
experimented with recently[1]:

struct Xml {
     string beg;
     string end = "/>";  // Shared by all instances;
                         // no allocation for some objects.
// ...
}

I think it's a bug.
