Summary: Bugs caused by using logical 'and' instead of bitwise
'and'

This is not an enhancement request, it shows a language small design problem.
D gives no warnings nor errors on this code:
void main() {
uint x;
ubyte y = (x >> 16) && 0xFF;
}
Here to extract a ubyte the programmer has used a logical 'and' instead of a
bitwise 'and' by mistake. And it's not an uncommon mistake.
Ideas to face this kind of bugs are welcome.
