I would like to see this case instead covered by the conversion/coercion
warning switch.  

Yes, I know you're trying to preserve existing practice; but we have
to keep in the fore that the current situation is not the result of
systematic principles, and now is a good to time to rationalize all
that (and thanks for your contribution in this area!).
