Priorities

[David Abrahams]

Having struggled with the problem of conversions through an inheritance
hierarchy for days, and having not heard from Ulli (who originally wrote
this feature) about it, I feel the need for some feedback so I can decide
what to do.

I need to get a sense of the relative importance of this feature. Does it
need to be fast? small? implemented quickly?

I know that type conversions are an especially strong concern for Martin.
Does this include implicit conversions through inheritance?
