++ Hmm, some kind of way to say 'this thing owns this reference' would be good.
+At the moment, I'm thinking something that parameter lists can be extended with
+ownership rules, so for example
+
+ at_vec(vec v, u64 i, (vec > &i64) ok)
+
+would return a 'new' vector and a reference into the vector. If the 'vec' is
+moved, the &i64 is marked invalidated, but the &i64 is allowed to be passed
+around as long as 'vec' is not moved.
+
+For more references, something like
+
+ hmm((owner > thing1 | thing2))
+
+is three parameters, thing1 and thing2 are both
+invalidated if owner is moved (getting two indexes from a vector to swap them?
+not sure). Not sure how complex this system should be, could there for example
+be a situation where
+
+ hmm((owner > thing1 > thing2))
+
+might make sense? For now, the parser only accepts the first form, (vec > &i64).
