/**
 Use `Reactive` proxy as customization point for constrained protocol extensions.

 General pattern would be:

 // 1. Extend Reactive protocol with constrain on Self
 // Read as: Reactive Extension where Self is a SomeType
 extension Reactive where Self: SomeType {
 // 2. Put any specific reactive extension for SomeType here
 }

 With this approach we can have more specialized methods and properties using
 `Self` and not just specialized on common base type.
