Reflector review (22/06/2020- 06/07/2020)

During the review, the author posted a draft revision R2 on the reflector to address some of the comments.

We suggest improving the presentation to better show the difference with iostream, and overall more explanations for the proposed types and concepts. Binary operators should be hidden friends
We noticed some overlap with the buffer interfaces proposed in the Network TS.
We suggest considering the vectorized I/O cases more closely
We propose separating the types serialization from i/o, as separate layers and/or papers. There seems to be some interest for a binary serialization interface
It was suggested that this paper needs to explore text/io, to make sure not to close any door or design mistakes even if text is handled as a layer built on top of lower level i/o facilities
