On topic of proposals: what to you think about embedding
context pointer into struct when such alias is used? That will
require some enforcement from compiler if template instance
will be actually used as member field in same struct but avoid
template bloat and fits with existing behavior of nested
aggregates.
While not a bad proposal in itself, it's not very interesting in
terms of performance. If we are to do pointers, then pointers to
the lower layer aren't much harder to do by hand and save you the
ECX (this pointer) adjustment when calling the lower layer's
methods.
