Abstract:
Implicit conversion to and from other types are useful, and is
to some extent covered by existing language features. Some
cases are currently not covered, but could be worthy additions
to the toolbox.
I've tried to figure out good ways to add some sorely-needed
implicit conversions to the language, but I'm sure there are
details that need to be ironed out. In other words - destroy!

In my opinion this DIP does not cover enough most important
question for any DIP "what value does it bring that makes change
worthy" or, in other words, "what problems is solves that can't
be solved differently". Right now it is more like "this looks
nice and you can do that" thing which does not sound convincing.
