Why is it a blocking issue?

I feel like this is very aligned with the goals of rust-gpu.

Pointers are sort of needed for high performance memory management for HPC targets for existing design patterns, maybe we can think of better solutions down the line but it's hard for me to say anything I just use/abuse CUDA pointers as well.
