Ok, I will give you some background of what I am trying to do.
I have a struct that wraps a class object and lazily initializes
it. Now in case the struct instance is passed as an argument to a
function and it has not been initialized yet, the default copy
constructor and the postblit do not offer a possibility to
initialize the class object before copying.
Any possibility of *preblit* kind functionality?
