Is there some way to say

po::valuestd::string()->match( "some regex expression here" );
It so common to do this kind of validation that I think it would be a benefit if the library could handle this. It should be possible to let the library depend on boost.regex only when needed.
I agree this could be handy -- both ideas above. Unfortunately, I am unlikely to implement this immediately, so could you file an issue? Thanks, Volodya
