Invoke user-defined literal on lvalue

Question

Is there any way to invoke a user defined literal on lvalues?

e.g I would like to

int operator \"\" _xor1(int a) { return a^1; }

// Works fine
17_xor1;

I'm not sure you really want to - as commented, you're probably better off defining a normal function and calling that - but you can call it using:

operator""_xor1(myInt);

See User-defined literals for more information.
