Using Boost.Parameter is not the same sort of thing; it comes with Boost and is transparent to build/configuration issues. I'm not saying what you're suggesting is a bad idea; I just don't see what great advantage it offers.
Faster compile time? Boost.Parameter uses a great deal of metaprogramming, and I used a little here in a project of mine. It really makes the interface better, but the compile times grow a lot. IMO, they are worth, but I doubt everybody would agree.
