Review comment:
       > (I'd also mention that std::function makes backtraces in debug mode 
rather annoying, but that's a much smaller concern)
   I can live with the backtraces (but I agree they are annoying) but it also 
makes it pretty much impossible to "step into" as well.
   
   Are you sure the overhead is std::function vs function pointer/lambda?  I 
wonder how much optimization the compiler can really do with an arbitrary 
callable?
   
   For example, I've been bitten by lambda before when I captured an 
accumulator variable by reference because the accumulator, which had previously 
been a register, now required a full RAM write for every increment (since other 
threads could now conceivably be observing this).
