After trying out the Movable<TResource> type from Move Semantics for IDisposable
I discovered a fatal flaw in its implementation: it is incompatible with struct
memberwise copy semantics.
See also Move Semantics for IDisposable Part 2
C++ 11 introduced the concept of move semantics to model transfer of ownership.
Rust includes transfer of ownership as a key component of its type system.
C# could benefit from something similar for IDisposable types. This blog
post explores some options on how to handle this.
