Still, asio offers this possibility and I am eager to know if there is a reason why no other library (e.g. program_options) does.
If I find the time I would perhaps try the exercise to make a patch for one or the other lib, but want to avoid that afterwards somebody tells me that I could have saved the time because of some reason..
It's probably a matter of resources. And it's not just the effort needed to develop the code. Distinct build configurations like this that are not tested tend to bit rot. And the more such build configurations there are, the harder it becomes to test the various possibilities in combination.
