I have no idea if this contributes at all, but there is something
called Gaussian Numbers
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_integer). I am not even sure if
std::complex<int> (with the proper considerations with respect to
division) is the appropriate way to implement Gaussian Intergers, it
might.
The only point at which I saw a serius application for it was in a
topology class. (sorry, I don't remember the context).

Thanks,
