Well, it may be a solution, but I personally regard 'new' as a visual cue that
indicates that memory is allocated from the heap.

But considering your proposal we should get rid of 'auto class' too,
because 'auto' should mean only one thing - be it scope lived classes or type
inference.

I think it's easier to change type inference syntax since it's a relatively
recent addition and hence it'll break less code.
