Ok, clear. It will work then as far as I can see.

But I am surprised this is considered a #1 issue to address. I 
have never been worried by lack of control over generated garbage 
in Phobos - it was the other way around, worries about control of 
how it is allocated.

So yes, this is likely to solve issue you have mentioned but does 
not seem to be of any interest to me.
