As the reporter of the ticket I support the proposal.  One note: there
are cases we cannot use EXPECT_<op> because sometimes the class of
the compared objects do not meet template requirements (most commonly
observed failure case is it doesn't have corresponding operator<<).

Obviously, in such cases EXPECT_TRUE/FALSE should be allowed as a
compromise.
