In a word:

--------
struct S
{
    void opAssign(int j);
}

void main()
{
    int[] i;
    i[] = 5; //Here1

    S[] s;
    s[] = 5; //Here2
}
--------

Actual behavior:
Here2: Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (5) of type int to S[]

Expected behavior:
Here2: opAssign(5) is called for each member of s, just like for Here1.

Ditto for all other flavors of opSliceSomething.
