It's mentioned in this proposal, "Implicit creation of objects for
low-level object manipulation" published 2018-02-11:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p0593r2.html
It looks similar to std::launder, introduced in C++17.
Perl has a built-in "bless" function. I presume that's where the name
came from.
It's not mentioned in the latest C++ draft standard.
