[boost] Quick Thought on Pointer Containers

1.  Maybe you should rename the library.  I haven't imagined:

    I wish I had a container of (smart) pointers that held polymorphic or
non-polymorphic objects.

But I have imagined:

    I wish there was a container that could hold objects that were scattered
across a class hierarchy.

Think of the solution space, not the implementation space

2.  There are some constructors and assignments with

    Op( size_type n, T t );
    template < typename InIter > Op( InIter b, InIter e );

You have a way for the proper algorithm to be used when T == size_type?
