Much as I prefer that for my own code, it is not the convention the Standard 
Library adopted. Since we are contemplating potential components for a future 
version of the Standard Library, perhaps it might be best to stick to its 
lexical conventions (no matter how much we may dislike them)?

[- the standard name for standard types 
  (that is iterator, not Iterator)]

Absolutely!

[- my personnal convention is UpperCase 
  for namespace names]

Did we determine a namespace hierarchy & policy? (Sorry, I should probably 
check the web site!)
