" Macros were avoided because everyone knows macros are evil, unless we
are the ones writing them."

I LOVE THIS LINE. Please keep it in :) 

On a serious note though, with your lib done the way it is , if someone
WANTS macros, there is nothing preventing them from having them.

I for example- MIGHT take your library and stuff __FILE__ __LINE__ into
the id. For this I would use a macro. This is also why I made the
request for the char*name type to be a template param. I may want to
plop in my own struct that has the __FILE__ and __LINE__ in it.
