The 'mark' you speak of could be the same as how I've suggested marking a
reference, i.e.:

    string &&&s("Hello World");
    string &&&s2 = "HelloWorld";

This would be similar to how we programmed before C++11, back when we
extended the lifetime of a temporary object by binding it to a const
reference, as follows:

    string const &s = FuncReturnsStringByValue();

The above line nowadays is simply written as:

    string s = FuncReturnsStringByValue();
