Does this mean a view is mutable? For example, using Boost.View,
can I write a bounded<std::list> that automatically drops the
last element on push_front if size() is at some upper limit value
before adding the new element? This is the sort of thing I
needed when I originally wrote the message you referenced. It
turns out I needed a few more things as well and I wrote a
fairly complex (much too complex) container adaptor library
to do it. Some other interesting things came out of it, though,
which I may get around to posting for comment. Someday. :)
