Good thing the voltage on a charging capacitor isn't DC, then.

By "DC current" I mean the steady state current (when dI/dt = 0). Of course, an ideal capacitor being charged (or discharged) through some resistance to a constant voltage will only reach the steady state in the limit as t -> infinity (treating current as continuous rather than discrete).
