Yes, the rules for conversion from/to qualified types, particularly by
simple assignment, are being changed to reflect the original intent.
I haven't seen the final form of the words, but I think they will say
something to the effect that qualified and non-qualified types may be
freely interconverted and only an attempt to access storage that
somewhere along the way was at least temporarily qualified is constrained
by the qualifier.
