<h2><a name="introduction"></a>Introduction</h2>
<code>implicitly_convertible</code> allows Boost.Python to implicitly
take advantage of a C++ implicit or explicit conversion when matching
Python objects to C++ argument types.

<dt><b>Requires:</b> The declaration <code>Target t(s);</code>, where
<code>s</code> is of type <code>Source</code>, is valid.</dt>
<dt><b>Effects:</b> registers an rvalue <code>from_python</code>
converter to <code>Target</code> which can succeed for any
<code>PyObject* p</code> iff there exists any registered converter
which can produce <code>Source</code> rvalues</dt>
<dt><b>Rationale:</b> C++ users expect to be able to take advantage of
the same sort of interoperability in Python as they do in C++.</dt>
