In my opinion the only reason for C++'s existence is because it's about as high level as you can go without losing control of the low level detail. If you're using it, it's because you need that low level control, and taking it away only serves to give people a false sense of security.
Not sure I'd agree with that. 90% of the time in C++, I don't want to go that low-level. However the fact that it's possible to do the other 10% without hassles makes it my language of choice. But I'll be thankful for being spared some work most of the time.
For the record, I think C++/CLI looks pretty damn cool.
