He says he's implemented a superset of the STL algorithms with it so we know the expressive power is fairly complete. I was wondering if you had given any thought to making use of his insights? Especially considering that RangeEx hasn't been used to fully cover a generic domain (I think), it might make sense.
One thing that I'm not entirely sure how to implement using ranges alone is regex_search. The basic problem is that in order to implement match_results, we need to create a sub-range delimited by two iterators *both of which are derived from the begin iterator* Ranges effectively make the begin and end iterators completely disjoint.
