Well, I think it's pretty neat. As with Abrahams, CPP metaprogramming
isn't exactly a part of my daily chores but it definitely came up when
it came time to write my library's Handle and Function classes.

I'm currently in the process of redesining & rewriting those classes
to make use of additional knowledge of C++ programming that I've
picked up since their original implementation and this will definitely
come in handy. Thanks for sharing your technique; it will surely help
the readability of the new implementation.

Hmm... It seems as if Paul has already made a reply answering this.
