+Using a user-defined operator on const/static variable is restricted to what
+can be evaluated at compile-time. Using an user-defined operator could call a
+user-defined function, which is not allowed.
+
+Bad example:
+
+```
+use std::ops::Index;
+
+struct Foo { a: u8 }
+
+impl ::std::ops::Index<u8> for Foo {
+    type Output = u8;
+
+    fn index<'a>(&'a self, idx: u8) -> &'a u8 { &self.a }
+}
+
+const a: Foo = Foo { a: 0u8 };
+const b: u8 = a[0]; // Index trait is defined by the user, bad!
+```
+
+Only operators on builtin types are allowed.
+
+Example:
+
+```
+const a: &'static [i32] = &[1, 2, 3];
+const b: i32 = a[0]; // Good!
+```

 Static and const variables can refer to other const variables. But a const
 variable cannot refer to a static variable. For example, `Y` cannot refer to `X`
