I was just looking through my old blog posts and realized there's another
edge case you should consider.
I don't know if it does cause problems, but it might.

templates — specifically, variadic operator templates — can achieve roughly
the same effect as
Foo operator*(int=0)
and you should think about whether that's relevant to this proposal. (Can
we today combine parameter packs with default function arguments? Might we
want to in the future?)
