Hi Jeff,

Of course this works, as well as STL iterator-based loops versus BOOST_FOREACH. As I said, this is just a syntactic sugar that makes the code cleaner, and it does this for quite a frequent case when you call element's member function.

I'd like to see this patch make it into a release too, despite Jeff's misgivings. While I can appreciate Jeff's comments about consistency of Boost interfaces in different libraries, the Boost Range adaptors are absolutely all about brevity and clarity of exposition, and as such seem especially to benefit from this syntactic sugar. Is this patch's appearance in a release 'in progress'? Anyone? Thx, - Rob.
