Yes, please. At least in Boost.Container, as those containers are based on Boost.Intrusive, implementation should be pretty easy.
I went ahead and filed.
Containers: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6710
Interprocess: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6711
Ticket 6711 was closed "won't fix" https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6711 :
Closing as "won't fix", since boot unordered is an implementation of the standard unordered containers, and this would be a break from the standard. It would also be worse when using std::equal_to or boost::hash since it would have to cast for every call to those function objects rather than just once for the call to operator[].
Perhaps the interprocess docs can be updated to show how to create a simple allocator from the heap for easy creation of these temporary copiers and how to cleanly provide the thunking between "normal" equivalent types (e.g. strings) and those used in memory regions (basic_string). Joel
