Without verifying the truth of your statement about copying, I would say 
iterating over a
loop should not need to copy objects.

BOOST_FOREACH seems truly not to be for everyone as the name would suggest 
(FOREACH is a
lie, it is not for me). 

I've never used it, ever.  If I cannot write the three controlling statements 
in for loop
on a standard container, then its time to retire, or find a new container.
