Well, as I said, this stuff is quite new, documentation will follow soon, please
be patient :) 
Currently the example usage can be seen only in tests :( Tests for split are located in
$sandbox$/libs/string_algo/iterator_test.cpp

I want to finish some parts of implementation beforehand and I have plans to completely
rework the documentation to reflect these changes.

They are already integrated, but there is still a need for a little bit of polishing.
I have modified/extended container_traits from ..../sequence_algo/ to fit them into
the lib. However, the contaiter_traits in the string_algo lib are not mean to be used
from outside of the lib. At least not for now. I think, that they are essential
for string_lib, so I asked Thorsten if I can integrate them. If my lib gets accepted,
it will also act as a showcase for container_traits.
