1. The memory management model is extremely simple. I wonder if storage_ptr could be moved somewhere else long term so other libraries can use it.
This is something that has come up a few times, and I think it is worth the review manager making a special note of it. For now I am content to simply have an initial release of Boost.JSON where the storage_ptr system is part of the library (which will be necessary for standalone anyway). And we can see how the community feels about it, work out any possible kinks.
After some time for the thing to mature, we can measure support for proposing it as its own library, or perhaps making it part of another library.
How is this going to work in standalone mode?
