Re: [std-proposals] move_as

Well the current solutions are insufficient because they are
non-existent...
Consider this class:
struct StringWrapper
{
     // [...]
     [[nodiscard]] explicit operator std::string&&(void) && noexcept {
return std::move(this->_value); }
private:
     std::string _value;
};
I would want to perform that conversion like that:
C c = AcquireC();
const auto myString = std::move_as<std::string>(c);
