Oh, people are able to write perfectly unreadable code as is already :).
What I mean is this: every feature of a programming language can be used
for good and for bad purposes. It is the programmers responsibility to
choose a good way. I feel the same about auto. It can increase
readability and portability and it can decrease it.

I feel bad to limit the features of c++ artificially just because we do
not trust our developers. A company might do this, but we are not in the
position. I'd say, go for all and see what programmers make from it and
decide on a per-case basis.
