That's suboptimal, since in the general case we need an extra
construction for emplacing, but we know that we don't need to do that
when inserting rvalues.

Why not ? I realized with your remarks that I was missing some tests in the new self_insert.cc. The ones to insert an rvalue coming from the vector itself. In the attached patch there is those 2 tests, do you agree with expected behavior ? For the moment it doesn't check that the source value has been indeed moved cause it doesn't, I will update it once it does.

No, I don't agree, because this is undefined behaviour:

  vv.insert(vv.begin(), std::move(vv[0]));

We don't need to support that case.

17.6.4.9 [res.on.arguments] says:

— If a function argument binds to an rvalue reference parameter, the
 implementation may assume that this parameter is a unique reference
 to this argument.

i.e. when passed an rvalue we can assume it is not a reference to
something in the container.

That's why we should not perform any more operations when inserting
rvalues than we do now. Any increase in copies/moves for inserting
rvalues is a regression, and should be avoided.
