I think it's probably a worthwhile project. It would be interesting to
see what kind of proposals we'd get for a project like this. I'm not
entirely sure what the scope or difficulty of this project would be.

Applying these concept checks within a library is also not without
(potentially high) risk. If the concept checks aren't right, you could
end up breaking code.
