[boost] Interest in a small array count facility?

Hi guys,

a while ago there was some discussion about incorporating a
compile-time array count facility in boost. I also provided an
implementation for multidimensional arrays. Is there still interest
for this? The benefits over the classical
sizeof(array)/sizeof(array[0]) idiom are not overwhelming but at least
there's a fair syntactical convenience and, of course, the advantage
of unit test integration. If there's interest I can add it, to the
utility subdirectory I guess (better suggestions are welcome; I really
don't like using utility/ as a sort of repository for anything we have
no better place for).
