Andy,

The suggestion, and I was not privy to your reply to Jim, was to extend the use of implied conversions to expressions, when this language change was previously proposed as "only allowed in conditions".

 If the proposal said this, it was a mistake. We specifically discussed the problems with implicit conversions applied anywhere in an expression back in July and knew this would cause all kinds of problems. That is why we decided we needed to limit it to the top-level of the expression and only within the context that the language recognizes as a *condition*.
