How do you prevent people from instantiating Object (in your example)?
Also, I was more or less looking for a member-specific way of doing the
singleton access. For example:
Object::instance()
You can do something like:

struct Object
{
  friend class singleton<Object>;
  Object& instance()
  {
    return singleton<Object>::instance();
  }

  private:
    Object(); ~Object();
};

I'm sure there is a nicer way to wrap that up.
