We have very few details on what this will look like for someone 
that doesn't want it. Not breaking existing code is far from 
sufficient for those writing unsafe code. Inference is useless 
because there's nothing to infer, @trusted loses its meaning, 
there's needless boilerplate all over the place, and it's more 
complex for new users of the language. There's no evidence that 
any of this has been given consideration, and all apparently 
because adding -safe to the compilation command is too much of a 
burden for those wanting the additional checks.
