Well, how does the library user knows that an optional<T&> does not own the stored reference?
C++ references are *never* owning. Have never been, except in really outlandish designs.
Maybe we need a specialization boost::optional<T*> that does not store a boolean flag (and otherwise behave like optional<T&>? Or a new dummy smart pointer to signify that the held ptr object is owned by another object. E.g. boost::ptr<T> ? -Thorsten
