Hmm.  There's a concept of a reinterpret cast with pointers, so an int* and a
float* can feasibly be pointing to the same memory address.  Since it's far
less likely that this will be done with object references, I see now that it
would need to be at least as strict to make sense.

Looking at

http://dlang.org/expression.html#IdentityExpression

there isn't a clear statement of what combinations of types are allowed.  There
should be.  As such, this is a spec issue as much as a compiler issue.
