I've implemented a helper function for creating r-value out of l-values defined as

E movedToRvalue(E)(ref E e)
{
    import std.algorithm.mutation : move;
    E value;
    move(e, value);             // this can be optimized
    return value;
}


Doesn't the second overload of `move()` already do what you want?

https://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm_mutation.html#.move

Note that in your implementation, you needlessly initialize `value`, which then needs to be properly destroyed by `move()`, which the Phobos implementation avoids:

https://github.com/dlang/phobos/blob/master/std/algorithm/mutation.d#L1083-L1088

For the case when movedToRvalue is called with an r-value, such as in,

    static assert(__traits(compiles, { consume(S(14)); }));

I would like to overload to an identity op.

If the compiler is smart enough to understand what `moveEmplace()` does, it could already do this automatically.
