P1214R0 Pointer to Member Functions and Member Objects are just Callables! (JeanHeyd Meneide)

Seen by EWGI in SAN.
Interested, but want to avoid EWG pitfalls from Oulu / Toronto. Might want to deprecate current syntax too. Need to see again..

This issue is labeled needs-revision Paper needs changes before it can proceed . What changes are needed to get it proceed?

@ThePhD , do you know what needs to be done here? If not, please talk to @jfbastien so that this paper can make progress one way or the other.

@cpplearner needs-revision label is added when paper wasn't forwarded, but the author was encouraged to continue working in direction of the paper. In case of EWGI, it's when EWGI considers it is worth spending time on the paper. Meeting notes if you have access can be found here: https://wiki.edg.com/bin/view/Wg21sandiego2018/P1214R0

The original blocker was an unmentioned hold up about the paper the last time it was seen when proposed by P. Dimov. I talked to the person who had the blocker back in San Diego 2018 and they didn't remember what they didn't like. They didn't remember later when I asked either, and have since stopped working on Committee stuff at all

So I imagine I need to clean up the wording and just take the paper to EWG at this point to figure out if they want it or not.
