Except when giving a choice complicates the matter more than the 
benefits it can give.
 From this perspective I like compiler flags more than adding new source 
code constructs. Maybe because I think that signed wrapping, unlike 
unsigned, is of no practical use.

I, for one, find some of them questionable.

That's my first - unsigned wrapping /can/ be useful in some contexts. I 
can't say if it is about the majority of cases, but it is enough to keep 
it in place.

I would say it is a better debugging aid than nothing, but as 
reliability goes it can only catch what is executed, and it is often 
impossible to test all possible combinations at runtime. On the other 
hand, it would degrade efficiency to a possibly unacceptable level (As 
Scott pointed out).

I am not sure bout this.
Floating point arithmetic does something of the kind (NaN propagates 
through), but I think that if it is about a sensor failure, and 
especially if it is about safety, then the hardware itself or the device 
driver should handle this properly, i.e. with specific error conditions, 
rather than the language.

True.

> * efficiency is of low importance for lot of code
Disagree. It is not always important, but it is important enough to be 
one of the main reasons to choose C++, so it should be of primary 
importance for the language.

True, as long as verbosity is kept at a reasonable level.

I agree with Scott here.

See above, my impression is that this would result in excessive bloat of 
the language. Better use compiler flags, or at most #pragmas for 
sections of code.
