    /*! Observers can be registered with instances of this class so
        that they are notified when a different value is assigned to
        such instances. Client code can copy the contained value or
        pass it to functions via implicit conversion.
        \note it is not possible to call non-const method on the
              returned value. This is by design, as this possibility
              would necessarily bypass the notification code; client
              code should modify the value via re-assignment instead.
