Final Review. This is a last chance for community feedback
before the DIP is handed off to Walter and Andrei for the
Formal Assessment. Please read the procedures document for
details on what is expected in this review stage:

The current revision of the DIP for this review is located

In it you'll find a link to and summary of the previous review
round. This round of review will continue until 11:59 pm ET on
September 28 unless I call it off before then.
Thanks in advance for your participation.
Small typo under Breaking Changes and Deprecations
"4. After the time period specified in step 4 has elapsed,
stage 2 can be merged."
should be
"4. After the time period specified in step _3_ has elapsed,
stage 2 can be merged."
Thanks! https://github.com/dlang/DIPs/pull/134/files
The only thing I think is missing is a flag to accelerate the
process s.t. the examples
f(E.a);
f(E.b);
g(a - b);
can be made to call their int/long overloads straight away. But
otherwise, er, no. A resounding yes with a small request to
make the transition faster!
I'm not too keen on adding a compiler flag, because then I have
to worry about deprecating the compiler flag. I don't know if
the bugs that this DIP fixes are serious enough to justify it.
I'd be happy to add it if others are willing to voice their
support for it, demonstrating sufficient demand. Or, I suppose I
could add it as an option for Walter and Andrei to approve or
reject on judgement day.
