It was my understanding that the auto ref was supposed to work with non-
templated functions - at least what Andrei proposed was - but that you 
misunderstood that and made it only work with templates. And as long as it 
only works with templates, it's usefulness is very limited. opEquals would be 
a _prime_ case for where it would be useful.
