Yes, absolutely. Also, any kind of attribute "inheritance" is misguided 
and should be turned off. There is no reason why functions nested in 
@nogc functions should be implicitly @nogc, for example. If they are 
inferred to possibly use the GC, @nogc already checks that the enclosing 
function only calls it in a context where that is okay (for example, in 
CTFE).
