This is my proposal for fixing #193.
With this change, interface parameters now have to be explicitly marked as references in the interface definitions. Look at
tests/ui/pass/param-refcount.rs
for an example. This also allows us to get rid ofParam
. I think this makes it clearer and more consistent. In case you actually do want to pass ownership through a parameter, this is also possible by leaving the&
away (not sure if anyone would actually need that).
