I could have moved it into core, but I didn't want to start adding type 
traits there until we've decided whether we're going to have some kind of 
"core type traits".

Although, as things currently seem to stand, replicating a subset of the 
type traits in core, along with a "proper" core::bool_, looks like the only 
viable way forward. I still don't like that option much though.

As for the general point of your post, yes, you're absolutely right. In 
fact, I would say that we should as a general rule no longer move headers 
around at all.
