So my motivation was and is purely practical. I expected that the only people inconvenienced by this are those that are inconvenienced by const in general. And that they would handle it the same way.

Robert, How is your rule any different from trapping serialization of all non-pointer types whose name begins with an uppercase letter? There's an easy workaround (just serialize via pointer) and the conditions of the trap have as much to do with the problem you're trying to detect. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
