Intrusive doesn't model vectors, that would be pointless. It models
lists (single and double), and sets (ordered and unordered).

Beast uses intrusive for the header fields container:

<https://github.com/boostorg/beast/blob/develop/include/boost/beast/http/fields.hpp#L164>

Boost.Intrusive is one of my favorite Boost libraries, it is
incredibly well written and well maintained on more platforms than I
can count. It is very handy.

Thanks
