And not only that.. We already have libraries that do one to all of the above.

As you might expect I’m very interested. Can you give more info about this? I think these are major elements that drive the interest to contribute and it’s not clear. E.g. I can’t find any statements about this in e.g. the “Boost Library Submission Process” to name something. More visibility to this would IMO add value.
