I made a case for this on the committee reflectors. They generally
seem to like the idea. In short: you were right, Joel. I'm now
generally in favor of changing result_of. Boost result_of can be
existing practice for (hopefully) a future change in the standard.
Daniel, is this something you're also interested in? I can see about a
patch.

Joel, since this is essentially your idea, would you be interested in
co-authoring a paper for the committee? I don't anticipate it would
have to be very long or elaborate.

Also, apologies for my defensiveness earlier.
