 something as simple as `*a = b` is going to be pretty complicated for
 any non-object value


 Maybe Walter will add opStarAssign()?


 And then opStarAddAssign, opStarDivAssign, opStarShlAssign, 
 opStarCatAssign...   no, that doesn't sound right.
 
 Beside, if you want real pointer semantics, you'll want to overload the 
 `is` operator too...

Yes but then if your code fails really badly and you're called in front of the
Senate to answer questions, you'll need to explain that it depends on what the
meaning of "is" is.
