           Summary: std.container.Array.opIndex returns by value,
                    resulting in perfect storm
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: andrei erdani.com

Per
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/mailman.281.1389340467.15871.digitalmars-d puremagic.com:

void main()
{
    import std.container;
    struct S
    {
      int i;
    }
    Array!S array = [ S(0) ];
    array[0].i = 1;
    assert(array[0].i == 1);
}

This fails because opIndex returns by value and then the lax rules of accessing
members for rvalues masquerade the member as a lvalue, which can be
subsequently assigned to.

Current stance of D is that ref results cannot be escaped (not enforced yet
statically but it will) so it's safe to return a ref.

Is this really Array that is at fault here?

//----
struct S{int i;}
S s();
int i();

void main()
{
    s().i = 1; //YES.
    i() = 1;   //NO.
}
//----

If you can't assign to an rvalue, I question the ability to assign to an rvalue
member...

 andrei:

Un-sealing containers is probably a correct solution, but it still feels like
working around the root issue.

I filed this, which I think should also be addressed.

But sealing is effectively achieved if we prohibit taking the address of ref
results.
