Discussion:
The library specification conveys pre-concept requirements on template parameters by naming, e.g. "InputIterator".
There is no general specification for template parameters named "Distance", as used by std::advance (see 25.4.3 [iterator.operations]). When addressing this omission, the local restriction in 27.7.12 [alg.random.sample] could possibly be removed. See the related issue 3213 for the Size template parameter.[2020-05-09; Reflector prioritization]
Set priority to 3 after reflector discussions.
