I wish somebody took a look at bimap. IIRC even simple stuff like support for initializer list is missing and MRs for adding that are ignored. https://github.com/boostorg/bimap/pull/31 I know this is a tiny lib, but I have actually used in in prod in past 5 years, so it is not super obscure.
Haha, I was just wondering about that one - it has actually had some community maintenance for basic bug fixes over the years, but I see no commits from the original author in the GH commit logs. So yes, this is a good example of some "low hanging fruit" that could make better use of modern language features. Don't forget to file a feature request on GH though! ;) John.
