I think there are three options: 1. Add it in with the existing type_traits code. 2. Make the definition only in the code you are working on (I'm not sure if this would be generatelly applicable?) 3. Don't use enable_if_* traits but instead use your own enable_if and have an "OR" expression using the underlying type_check checks (e.g. is_numeric_type) [1]
