Ok, I've just created a section in the Boost Wiki to collect ideas for
the library.

http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?BoostProcess

It is quite preliminary, even though I've already included several of
the suggestions made in this thread.

Please feel free to add whatever you find missing or comment on the
actual stuff.  (Specially about the "stream merging stuff".)

Cheers,

PS: I started this using BoostBook to create this documentation, but it
seems to be very difficult to use outside the boost build tree.  Plus
the wiki page is much more dynamic, easy to use and better to share
comments.
