@:from and @:to actually have the same functionalities. Whether you want to implement both as alias is open here.

I think this proposal is clean and makes a lot of sense. I see a lot of potential for making syntax very convenient with this, I like @:arrayAccess on strings in particular and think it should be added to StringTools. :+1: from me.

I can't see myself accepting any more implicit casts in the Haxe language, but I'm very much in favor of operator overloading via static extensions. This is a poorly written proposal though...
