That's a shame, I happen to like the use of sigils to denote pointer types, to my eyes it makes code a lot easier to read.
Out of curiosity why are they making the change? And will they add the `let x = box Thing` syntax or as an optional addition to the language or will it fully replace the old `let = ~Thing` syntax?
