	 * @brief Helper class for implicitly constructing value objects
	 *
	 * This type is a subclass of @ref value. However the only difference to
	 * value is that this class has additional constructors which allow implicit
	 * conversion of various types to value objects. These constructors are not
	 * part of the value class itself because implicit conversions like this
	 * (especially from @c tag&& to @c value) can cause problems and ambiguities
	 * in some cases.
	 *
	 * value_initializer is especially useful as function parameter type, it
	 * will allow convenient conversion of various values to tags on function
	 * call.
	 *
	 * As value_initializer objects are in no way different than value objects,
	 * they can just be converted to value after construction.
