--- Comment #1 from Lionello Lunesu <lio+bugzilla@lunesu.com> ---
I ran into this as well and also think the compiler should make a best effort to detect this at compile time, to minimize run-time surprises.

I'm pretty far along with a patch, but am running into corner cases. Will push soon to get some feedback.

With dmd v2.104.0, this is the only line that fails:

>    a[] = a[];

Even this works:

    a[] = b[] / a[];

So it's not just rewriting it as `op=`.
