-------------------------------------------------------------
There is also an open question whether default increment/decrement operator
arithmetic should trigger overloaded {{+=}} / {{-=}} operators, in case those
are defined for the incremented/decremented target object. One might expect
that ++x should be equal to x += 1 rather than x = x + 1 like in current
implementation. I think this can be a better choice in case of complex
structeres (like collections or atomics) too, because casual + operator in that
case may mean creation of a *new* object adjusted with one element, whereas
self-add += operator may mean modification of the *existing* left-side object.
