I already sent a much longer message detailing some of the 
reasons why I believe my design is sensible. But, before we 
continue this discussion much further, I need to stop and make 
one thing clear:

What you are proposing is *not* "fixing" my design - it is 
basically scrapping it and replacing it with a ground-up rewrite, 
with perhaps some bits and pieces and general inspiration taken 
from my work.

I'm OK with the community rejecting my design if that's what 
people really want to do, but I will not be implementing your 
proposal myself. I will simply leave `checkedint` on DUB, and 
move on with my life.

So, I'm putting out a general call now for the community to 
download the DUB package, try actually *using* it for something, 
and speak up as to whether the design seems good, or not.

If the decision is made to accept the high-level design, then we 
can go back to bikeshedding about names, fixing typos, 
tweaking/trimming the API, etc.
