           Summary: Assign x%int to int without cast?

In DMD 2.059beta this code compiles with no warnings or errors:


void main(string[] args) {
    uint x;
    ubyte y = cast(ubyte)args.length;
    ubyte z = x % y;
}


So I'd like code similar to this too to compile with no need of a cast:


void main() {
    ulong x;
    int y;
    int z = x % y;
}


Currently it gives:
test.d(4): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (x % cast(ulong)y) of
type ulong to int
