It is used 0 times in Phobos. In fact I have not seen it used for a single time in any living project - guess because any sane person understands how terrible of a misfeature it is.

I've used it, because I'm lazy.

Usually something like:

int x = 0;
bool xisaninteger;
try
{
  x = to!int(args[2]);
  xisaninteger = true;
}
catch
{
}

Sure, there are better ways to do it, but I don't care when I'm writing a quick script.

You will break some code if you disallow it. Personally I don't mind, but it's not up to me.
