The problem is that when you emulate core.simd (DMD 32-bit on 
Windows require that, if you want super fast OPTLINK build 
times), then you have no way to have user-defined implicit 
conversions.
and magic vector types from the compiler float4 / int4 / short8 / 
long2 / byte16 are all implicitely convertible to each other, but 
I don't think we can replicate this.
