Indeed. I'm working on a boolean logic package that has a number of different 
bitfield oriented backends, all of which will have a lot of very needlessly 
repetitive code without generics. If generics weren't coming "soon" I'd 
consider writing a generator to build it, but generics are the much more 
elegant solution. This is absolutely a real-world problem that I am having, 
right now, in the real world.
