This code should give (as it currently gives):
temp.d(4,13): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (99999) of type int
to ubyte

Here i scan a ubyte range 0 .. 255, so tagging it as ubyte is OK. I think it's
irrelevant that later I try to overflow the contents of i.

Even this is OK for D, despite 'i' gets overflowed:

void main() {
    ubyte[256] data;
    foreach (ubyte i, ref x; data) {
        i += 200;
        i = 200;
        x = i;
    }
}


So I still don't see the problem.
