Gordon,

I'm considering writing a review, but it will necessarily be late (sometime
this week?).

My initial inclination is to vote against acceptance of the library due to
what I currently perceive to be a lack of "real-world use", since it seems
like the margin of error for "getting it right" for these extrinsic
conversion operators is pretty small.  However, I intend to review the
documentation to provide feedback nonetheless.

Vicente, if you have some real-world use cases that you know of, please
share.
