I'm not sure about this one.  std::allocator are a mess, and almost
everyone knows it.  They were designed for containers, and they only
barely work there, IMO.  Remember the weasel-wording about unequal
allocators and the assumptions implementations are allowed to make
about allocator's nested types?  I really don't want to be in the
position of forcing library authors to match users' expectations about
the way their particular implementation's allocators work.
