I agree. I guess I may be in the minority here but I don't really
like decorating things with const too much because I have tended to
find that once you start adding const, you end up having to add it in
more and more places to avoid warnings, and then eventually that
causes you to have to start casting it away. Perhaps I was just Doing
It Wrong.
Anyway, I don't see much point in having const if you're just going to
have to cast it to non-const. Then it wasn't really very const in the
first place...
