But I think you need it if you want to create module-specific 
allocators? Otherwise users of the module have to remember to add 
initializers and destructors externally.

To prove that at compile time takes a very complex type system, I 
think? And checking it at runtime has a performance impact 
(unless you do runtime patching, which gets ugly real fast).
