We need something like this, definitely. I get really sore typing these:

template <class Class, class Member, Member (Class::*mp)>
struct get_member
{
    static Member& execute(Class* c)
    {
        return c->*mp;
    }
};

    get_member<X, int, X::a>::execute(x);

when I should at least be able to say:

    get_member<X::a>::execute(x);
