I don't know what you mean by standard type-juggling. Your proposal really does not outline what you want very much, just what you're against. As for strictness, if your proposal suggests that strict typing is the default, I cannot see where. As I see it, each proposal is a very minor variation on the other. My proposal had an extra layer, but it it wasn't well received, so I've withdrawn it. Ilia has a patch now that does what I understand you want, using the (int) syntax, with strict by default. I may be wrong, but I believe the only thing left to argue about is strict versus weak by default. I was originally of the opinion that weak typing should be the default. However, it had barely any support, whereas there was great support for strict by default.
