I was actually thinking the same thing. This would be almost
future-proof (any changes to either side would result in failed
compilation).

Specifying two types instead of one in a "to" call should achieve
that. -- Andrei
This is different. `to` is about "smart" conversion (and potentially
costly with allocations flying around) - we are speaking about same
basic dumb cast here, just more controlled.
I see. I guess it's easy to add std.conv.explicitCast and
std.conv.implicitCast if there's enough impetus for it. -- Andrei
