It works also for any other type, if the structure contains a
member of that type in the first position.
Is this normal behaviour?
Yes, this is OK
If you need to cast against diferent types you can try pointers:
In fact I'm trying to overload the cast operator in this case, I
was surprised about the default casting since I didn't find any
reference to this behaviour, nor in TDPL, nor online.
Since UFCS is not allowed in operator overloading I wonder if
this is possible.
