The omission of const qualification in BOOST_IDENTITY_TYPE types is undocumented. This omission maybe deduced from the documented implementation, but, as noted, that is not part of the library api and is subject to change. I therefore propose that this behaviour be documented as part of the library's public api.
That looks like a bug.
