I must say, that the current situation with only postblit makes it quite 
easy to implement containers and gives a lot of flexiblity when handling 
user defined value types in general. But as shown in this thread not 
every use case can be implemented with just a postblit. I had some other 
use cases in the past where postblit was not enough, and I had to work 
around by adding one level of indirection. Usually these use cases 
involve wrapping a pointer or a reference to an object.
