Or how about allowing

std::vector< ...complex sub-types, ... > v;
for( v::const_iterator it = v.begin(); it != v.end() ++it)

When I'm explaining this to people new to C++, they often get confused
by they need some_type::iterator instead of the_value::iterator. And I
can't think of a good reason that it needs to be this way (but I'm
probably missing something)
