That name suggests to me a type system library for metaprogramming, which is unfortunately (although sorta conveniently (?)) duck typed ATM. Any takers? :-)
It does seem to me that the TypeErasure library has outgrown its name into some sort of general dynamic concepts - congrats Steven, a real mind bender! - but I won't argue that it completely solves type erasure, so no arguments there.
Cheers,
Gordon
