The one serious probem I see with Rust is the inability to use a
garbage collector for those applications that do need one.

I'd love to be able to use Rust's reliable allocation control for those 
parts of a program where it's adequate, and a garbage collector for 
those data where it isn't, and have Rust properly verify the interface 
between them.
