The feature seems to be already implemented:

#include <boost/static_assert.hpp>
#include <boost/type_traits.hpp>

template<class T> class pointer
{
  BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((boost::is_convertible<T*, Object*>::value));
};

Or am I missing something?
(Note that the additional parentheses are required so that the ","
is not interpreted as separating preprocessor arguments.)
