Sure, but you can never experiment too much with a feature before it goes into the working paper, and we've learned that many features that look great in small examples---say, ADL---can cause big problems in the wild. We should encourage experimentation as much as possible. If it means setting up a regression tester with, e.g., the variadic templates compiler, we should do it.
But, let's keep the uses of these new features safely tucked behind macros or in separate header files. We're not going to guarantee anything about their continued use until they're firm in the WP. Doug,
On my local disk, I've got code for variadic templates tucked underneath */boost/sandbox/variadic-templates. I got what I think is an variadic version of mpl::list; however, the compiler gets an ICE when it sees mpl::equal. The code is in boost-vault under variadic_templates.
