I also noticed there is a "competing" page:

Is it useful to have both?

I second the requirement, but with different interpretation.
I think it is good to have the possibility to difine bindings for 
user-defined datatypes. Specializing a given class template is one way 
to achieve this variation point and is consistent with how it is done in 
STL.
