Yeah, I like that syntax, and I see that it spares you the intermediate
closure object.  I could write invoke() myself for a few cases, but I
don't understand the preprocessor lib enough to make it generic
for arbitrary numbers of parameters.  Of course, people will still
argue that you should just use bind(), and maybe they're right. ;)
