Except that DMD doesn't really have any incorrect warnings any more.
The only time that you get a warning that isn't necessarily a bug in 
your code is with implicit conversions.
Once the range-tracking implicit conversion rules for arithmetic 
operations are fully implemented, all of the warnings could be turned 
into errors, and DMD could lose the -w switch.
