If someone thinks this is interesting and/or important enough to make demo/test along with an addition to the documentation (see - case studies), I would be willing to make the minor changes in the code to support this.
I think this could be very useful. I think the reasoning for my situation is rare, but that the situation itself isn't. The scenario Joaquín described earlier is something I think would be a common problem. I'd hate to be in a position where I couldn't upgrade boost, or had to try to use new boost with old serialization, because I need an older serialization format. If you do start to work on it, please let me know. I'd like to take a look at it. Perhaps I could provide you some useful feedback. Jared
