In my opinion interoperability shouldn't target a particular library,
and instead should be based on a concepts-style definition of all
operations.

Since C++ doesn't and AFAIK won't for the foreseeable future have
concepts, the only option for such interoperability is to use type
traits and boost::enable_if, so users can easily integrate other
libraries' types and their own custom types.
