One thing in Ada I could never quite grasp where the accessiblity
checks.  I haven't seen much Ada code, and personally, I didn't have
much need for nested access types anyway.  If I have used them, they
were still potentially unsafe due to aliasing or calls to
Unchecked_Deallocation in neighboring code.

So what's the point for this language feature?  It seems to add quite
a bit of complexity to the language.
