Actually, selectors do not limit the choice of containers to a fixed
set. Selectors are equivalent to template template parameters, and are
more compiler friendly :) In section 8.1.7 I describe how the
container_gen class works. This class basically allows the user to
define their own selectors and the mapping to the container of their
choice.
