As of C++03, std::vector is contiguous, so I'm not convinced by the utility of this.
interesting ... it seems, my assumption was based on c++98
I don't think that was changed from 98 to 03. but your description reminded me of something I do think would be a useful addition to Boost.Array.
According to the following link, the contiguousness of std::vector was made explicit in c++03: http://herbsutter.wordpress.com/2008/04/07/cringe-not-vectors-are-guaranteed...
