See Core issue 1259.

See also the discussion thread starting at https://groups.google.com/a/isocpp.org/d/msg/std-proposals/9PxiUu0Tr1k/3gextFEMi8sJ.

Discussed in Rapperswil 2014. Dennett pointed out that this idea doesn't work with sized deallocations, which we voted in. Voutilainen pointed out that sanitizers can catch such misuses if it's undefined behaviour. Closing as NAD.
