[boost] RFC: cross_product algorithm

I would like to gauge the need for a generic
cross_product algorithm (similar to inner_product).  I
have found it handy in initializing a matrix from two
vectors.

Here's the prototype:
    template<
        typename InputIterator1,
        typename InputIterator2,
        typename OutputIterator,
        typename BinaryFunction >
    void
    cross_product(
        typename boost::call_traits< InputIterator1
>::param_type first1,
        InputIterator1 last1,
        typename boost::call_traits< InputIterator2
>::param_type first2,
        InputIterator2 last2,
        OutputIterator result,
        BinaryFunction op);

If there is interest, I would like to submit the code
for review.

Thanks,
Noel
