+		 * C++17 and beyond have many conditional attributes on functions.  Conditional `noexcept`,
+		 * conditional `explicit`, and even conditional instantiation.  The `noexcept` and `explicit`
+		 * are conditional on a boolean condition.  This enum permits making templates which
+		 * are conditionally const, depending upon instantiation.
+		 *
+		 * Simple example:
+		 *
+		 * ```
+		 * template< Constness constness >
+		 * struct IntWrapper
+		 * {
+		 *	private:
+		 *		int variable;
+		 *
+		 *  public:
+		 *		maybe_const_t< int &, constness > // This is sort of like if one could write `const( constness ) int &`
+		 *		view() { return variable; }
+		 *
+		 *		const int &
+		 *		view() const { return variable; }
+		 * };
+		 *
+		 * using MutableIntWrapper= IntWrapper< Mutable >;
+		 * using ConstIntWrapper= IntWrapper< Const >;
+		 * ```
+		 *
+		 * Now `Constness< Mutable >` has a member `view` which returns `int &` and `Constness< Const >` has a member
+		 * `view` which returns `const int &`.  This facility can be useful in implementing pairs of `const`/non-`const`
+		 * iterators, and other gadgets.
