Sure it should be built into the language, and I assume it will be

I have been noodling the problem space of secure coding after attending a
wonderful class taught by Ken Van Wyk. I have been casually checking out
Fortify, Ounce Labs, etc and have a thought that this stuff should really be

start companies to make up deficiencies in what large vendors ignore, how far
off base in my thinking am I?
