https://dlang.org/spec/struct.html (about POD) "it has no postblits, destructors, or assignment operators". It is weird that copy constructors are not mentioned in this list. Is it intentional? (Isn't this an erroneous omission in the specification?) In either case, to leave no questions like one I asked in this bug report, it should be explicitly mentioned in the specification.

Yeah, my bad. The DIPS specifically says that a struct that defines a copy constructor is not POD [1], however that did not make it in the spec. [1] https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/pull/129/files#diff-ecee0474c4314cd47dd8c2656b485c0cfd56e704a85de75839ec2850fb61f0ebR585
