IMHO, it's better to separate address-based storage pools from
token-based storage pools completely. In addition, your proposal
doesn't analyze the interaction of such storage pools with the rest of
the language. For example, subprogram calls with arguments allocated
in token-based storage pools can be implemented in two different ways
(caller locking and callee locking), with different results (less
locking overhead vs. short locking periods).
The general question regarding garbage collection and Ada is: With the
current Ada language, type safe, non-compacting garbage collection is
already possible. Why don't typical Ada implementations (which
produce native code) support garbage collection? There seem to be
many reservations about garbage collections, so I think the priority
issue is to provide an implementation of garbage collection which
demonstrates that better garbage collection
