It seems to me that MyClass has access to MyStaticClass, and thus should

No, they are sadly not part of the same file / module.
The // ---- should symbolize that. :D
Indeed, yet in MyClass.test1, you do reference MyStaticClass, which is
indicated to be in the same file as B. But no matter.
Would it be safe if I store A into an uint and cast this to B? Or is
that the explicit variant what the compiler do implicit, if I use B b =
cast(B) this.a; ?
uint tmp = A.Foo;
B result = cast(B)tmp;
gives the exact same result (and hopefully same asm) as casting directly
from A to B.
That also means that this compiles and gives (un?)expected results:
uint tmp = 17;
A a = cast(A)tmp;
B b = cast(B)a;
assert(b != B.Foo);
assert(b != B.Bar);
