I am suggesting that evaluating expressions works the same way it does now: subtype/range constraints are ignored and everything is treated as a normal integer (or is it universal_integer?).  Subtype/range constraints are considered on assignment or port/parameter association.

(Please correct me if I am wrong!)

What happens when you're simply evaluating expressions?
