To this end, unique_lock is default-constructible and movable, and supports lock and unlock operations.
Since when is unique_lock default-constructible? You just mean it has a defer_lock_t constructor, right?
Yes, that's what I meant: you can construct it without locking a mutex. I got confused by Johan's statement. Actually, thinking about it, there's no reason not to give it a default constructor: you'd just not be able to do anything with it until you move-assigned a unique_lock with a mutex into it.
