That would be pretty hideous IMHO. There's a reason that D eschews implicit 
conversions in general. And in this case, you'd very quickly end up with 
accidental conversions which resulted in exceptions being thrown by Variant. I 
think that it's _much_ better to require explicit conversions from Variant.
