While we're on the topic of features, there is an item of note I would
like to mention.  Over the past few months, I have seen a good share
of conversations about wrapping C++ Standard valarray to work with
scripting languages and their mathematical libraries  - ie. using BPL
to supply valarrays to numerical python and vice versa.  I believe
that providing support for this kind of thing out of the box would be
an important feature to take into consideration.  I have been
including this requirement in my design of a mult-array.
