I second that - 'formatter' is just confusing. However, something like 'coll_format' or 'sequence_format' - I'm ok with them.
"sequence_format" suggests it won't work with associative containers, for example.
'coll_format' has got my vote :)
"coll" suggests "collate" just as easily as "collection" and "collate" seems the more likely inference since "coll" is followed by "format." (That's what I thought of when I saw "coll_format" anyway.)
Yea, "coll" can mean anything.
If it was "collection_format" it could work.
What about "io/collection"? Place the library to libs/io/collection, headers to boost/io/collection, and be off? - Volodya
