Correction to avoid it seeming worse than it is: the compiler 
will not do this by default. The problem with hasElaborateAssign 
is that it calls opAssign manually. (There *were* bugs where the 
compiler did this by default though, when it thought that was the 
way to convert between constnesses for instance, but they're 
fixed.)
