This can be approximated in C++ through use of our bind and its placeholders, but this requires knowledge of the number of placeholders to use to match the number of remaining parameters. Is it possible to construct Phoenix functions that when invoked with fewer arguments than its arity indicates will produce a function taking the remaining arguments?"
