[boost] [util] Any interest in address_of_first_nonarray_elem ?

Working with built-in array objects I find myself repeatedly needing to  
get the address of the first non-array element. This is so I can do  
generic array comparisons and copies without resorting to multiple loops.  
For example:

template <typename T, std::size_t N>
bool generic_array_equal(T (&lhs)[N], T const (&rhs)[N])
{
   return std::equal(
     address_of_first_nonarray_elem(lhs),
     address_of_first_nonarray_elem(lhs) + total_extent<T[N]>::size,
     address_of_first_nonarray_elem(rhs));
}

Any interest in adding such a function to the util library?
