Sorry Peter I don't receive your mails.

value_if has a wide contract. I don't have nothing agains it.
value_if It can be constructed from has_value and operator* (call it 
deref if you prefer).
So the minimal interface is not value_if. When I kno wthat I have a 
value in I don't want to use value_if and dereference the obtained pointer.
