Ok, now I know why what I wanted to do was impossible. To store an object i=
nto an accessor or whatever, or to create it with allocator, with only a gi=
ven "value" of this limited type, you need to COPY this value, whatever you=
 do. Which goes against the very idea of limited type.
I feel more intelligent thanks to that...
And I know why though ITEM_TYPE is indefinite limited, you can only transla=
te from its POINTER to a smart pointer, never directly from a value of that=
 limited type.
