But that is trivial to implement as a library feature!

The biggest problem, as I see it, is that assert(), which is a
*built-in* feature of the language, now has radically different
semantics depending on where and when it is called.

Besides, the behaviour Andrei and the rest of us want can't be
implemented in a library.
