Everybody is used to -50/2 = -25. I'd argue that intuition is far 
more fundamental than 2 compliment. I'd also argue a lot of 
experienced C/C++ programmers would probably get caught out by 
that bug because it's the kind of thing that's easy to forget or 
overlook.

That's why it should be an error.

I reckon most C/C++ people would think it's actually a good idea.
