Grid Element Handle Concept
A Grid Element Handle is a minimal representation of a
Grid Elements.
They are unique only within a single
Grid,
which allows to map back and forth between handles and their
corresponding elements.

Typical models of Element Handles are basic built-in types,
such as integral types or pointers.
As such, it is not required that the types of handles corresponding to different element types
(such as vertices and cells) be themselves different.
- Often, handles have to fullfil additional requirements.
For example, implementations of Container Grid Functions
often exploit special properties of handles, such as being consecutively ordered integral types,
or being a hashable type (that is, the hash template has been specialized
for them).
