No, I didn't.

I'm kind of thinking, that the "unique" concept currently can't
be fully implemented as a library solution. It needs at least
some language support - disallow refernce usage for safety, make
obvious implicit casts for... you know... for kids (currently,
when I use this implementation ".unique" and "Unique!T"
everywhere kind of clutters the code, and it also adds some
burden on writing generic (or just general) code). So, it's kind
of an open question.

That's right! Thanks!
