It is quite easy to define C++-like cast operators as D functions. If there's enough demand for that, we may include such in the standard library.
I hope this finally goes through, there still seem to be some – hurricane-related, probably – stability issues with the server. Anyway, a library solution is definitely what I am thinking about, especially since it's just a matter of a template with a fitting constraint. But as said in my other post (that also took quite a few attempts to post), I think such casting templates would make most sense if standardized, i.e. included with Phobos.
