There was a proposal to do just that in our DIP (D improvement proposal) pipeline that nearly made it but it (probably correctly) received enormous backlash.

However, if you use @safe (that's the attribute) the compiler will hard-error if you call any code that you use that isn't explicitly also either @safe or @trusted.

There is also DIP1000 and DIP1021 which both loosen @safe semantics to perform semantic analysis to allow safe memory behaviour (A small borrow checker in effect, this will hopefully be bigger soon).

There are no comments on this comment yet.
