I'm voting no on this RFC as I think the rejected feature described in 
the RFC is the way to go (relaxing true and false to allow type coercions).

For me, the main purpose of the singleton true/false boolean types is 
rather being explicit on what's actually stored/returned, rather than 
not being assignable an integer (e.g. 0 for false).
