Yep, that's one side of what we are discussing. Here's the beginning of the
thread - http://lists.boost.org/MailArchives/boost/msg27726.php. 

Basically, we are trying to come up with a best way to utilize powerful
capabilities of Vesa Karvonen's PREPROCESSOR library
(http://www.boost.org/libs/preprocessor/doc/index.htm) without imposing the
downsides of preprocessor-based code generation (such as "real pain to
debug" :) on users of our libraries (and, of course, ourselves).

I am interested.
