Discussion:

The working draft ignores the possibility that:

  1. the value of an expression of integer-class type might not be representable by the target integer type of a conversion, and

  2. the value of an expression of integer type might not be representable by the target integer-class type of a conversion.

Presumably the behavior of these cases is undefined by omission; is this actually the intent?

Notably (2) could be specified away by mandating that all integer-class types are capable of representing the value range of all integer types of the same signedness.
