In fact, if you've used "using" judiciously in your code

That doesn't work to inject overloads and specializations.

namespace A
{
     template<class T>
     struct foo;
}

namespace B
{
     using A::foo;
     template<> struct foo<int> {};
}

does not work.

The implementation detail in question is a generalized concept-based 
overloading system, and it requires all overloads and specializations to 
be in the same namespace.

I guess I'll just put it in boost::simd::detail and hide its uage behind 
a macro.
