So there are no conceptual problems in defining equality for value views. Putting aside efficiency, this is easy to solve.
Right. It's just waiting for someone's PR. However, that doesn't mean that the current behaviour is senseless. It's just less desirable than one might like.
Acknowledged: the current behaviour seems to be inherited from the default behaviour of equality used by object, which is (I think) the only sensible default. -- Steven
