          Issue ID: 13671
           Summary: http://dlang.org/const3.html incorrectly calls type
                    qualifiers "type constructors"
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Hardware: x86

          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: websites

Type constructors are language artifacts that build new types. Qualifiers are
type constructors in the sense that const(T) is a distinct type from T, but
there are many other type constructors: T[], T*, templates, etc. The page
http://dlang.org/const3.html should refer to qualifiers as "qualifiers", not
"type constructors".
