Not strictly true, as you can't do it* when you are declaring
something in a header. This makes things like Boost.Multiindex a bit
unwieldy.

*Well, technically you can do that in a header too, but most sane
coding guidelines discourage it, for the same reasons we don't want
everything in the top level boost namespace.
