Did you actually say 'consensus'? LOL
Could we state if the default_value CP is adopted? How think is not a good thing and why?
I am certainly looking at the idea from my original 'convert' point of view where such a thing was not needed. I find the need to write something like template <> default_value<example> { static example apply() { return example(3); } }; quite bothersome as I know I really do not have to. In the original wacky design the fallback and the default were synonyms. Now you are introducing an additional piece of machinery/code that is needed to deploy a class with conversion and I have to provide the default and the fallback. With that in mind I am not sure I am personally warming up for default_value concept yet. V.
