The class overload page seems to be improved now, but the table on the structs
pages lists "assign overload" rather than the better-describing "identity
assign overload".

No, the code isn't invalid, the documentation is just bad.

identity assignment overloading is not allowed for classes, that is what the
table is alluding to:

class A
{
   void opAssign(A a) {}
}

Error: function testassign.A.opAssign identity assignment operator overload is
illegal

There are several other places in the spec that could be better written.
