Bottom line is, and most importantly, optional gets the job done and it
does it really well! :-)
FWIW, it's easy to write a wrapper around optional that satisfies
our wishes (in fact, I sent a class interface scheme to Dave G.
tell me if you are interested).
It might also be a nice idea to write a partial-specialization of
variant<T, empty> that takes advantage of the optimizations of
optional.
