...step by step switch over to the new usage pattern.
Transformer should be the blueprint for all other functor usages.
The reworked solutions behaves as expected;
we see two functor invocations; the outer functor, which does
the argument adaptation, is allocated in heap memory
...especially relevant in the context of TreeExplorer,
where the general understanding is that the "Data Source" (whatever it is)
will be piggy-backed into the pipeline builder, and this wrapping is
conceived as being essentially a no-op.
It is quite possible we'll even start using such pipeline builders
in concert with move-only types. Just consider a UI-navigator state
hooked up with a massive implementation internal pointer tree attached
to all of the major widgets in the UI. Nothing you want to copy in passing by.
we allow assignment to the element embedded within the wrapper.
Yet obviously we need specific implementations for assignment
to the container itself. Thus we define the templated
assignment operator such as to render the explicit specialisation
a better match than anything generated from the templated
operator
obsoleted by C++11
* in most cases, it can be replaced by an explicit conversion operator
* especially for the Lumiera Forward Iterators, we need an implicit conversion
Seemingly I've hit a nasty problem here, because PlacementIndex
should return an Placement&, but this is being fetched
after-the fact from within the iterator.
