That's a bit restricting. I could really use a overloaded_function that received a MPL or Fusion sequence as well.

Why do you need to use MPL and Fusion sequences? What's the use case?

This would happen if the overloads are computed by metaprogramming instead of being hard-coded into the source.

You should be able to do the same with the current interface (a part from the other question of if the current interface should expose the number of overloads as constant).

I would argue that overloaded_function should be a fusion sequence even without knowing any specific use cases. If something looks like a container, I can pretty much guarantee that sooner or later, someone will want use algorithms on it. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
