If we follow

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/libs/range/doc/html/range/reference/ranges/istream_range.html

then we could add

boost::iterator_range<...>
boost::directory_range( const boost::path& )
boost::iterator_range<...>
boost::recursive_directory_range( const boost::path& )

kind regards
