What *could* be improved, is the prevention of obvious mistakes in
*mixing* signed and unsigned types. Right now, D allows code like the
following with no warning:
uint x;
int y;
auto z = x - y;
BTW, this one is the same in essence as an actual bug that I fixed in
druntime earlier this year, so downplaying it as a mistake people make
'cos they confound computer math with math math is fallacious.
What about:
uint x;
auto z = x - 1;
?
here z must be `long`. and for `ulong` compiler must emit error.
So, any time an integer literal appears in an unsigned expression, the type of
the expression becomes signed?
