To go back on P0847, it reminds me of a GCC extension where we can
convert a pointer-to-member-function to a pointer-to-global-function and
extract the "this" parameter:

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Bound-member-functions.html#Bound-member-functions

Might as well standardize this extension, no?

For the recursive lambda, a lambda really is a syntactic sugar form of a
functor so why not imply operator () quite simply?

auto fib = [](int n)
{
     if (n < 2) return n;
     return operator () (n-1) + operator () (n-2);
};

I might miss something but this is on top of my head.
