Not always. If user-defined type has an alias this to integer 
member, than something different would happen. It would be also 
interesting to see, how operation ++T would differ because 
somebody imported module with opUnary method. Because opUnary 
suits better than alias this, dmd will issue call to that 
function, it it see its declaration.
